Dimuth Karunaratne (C)c Faf du Plessis b Kagiso Rabada 0 1 0 0 0
0.1
K Rabada to D Karunaratne, OUT! Rabada strikes first ball! What a cracking beginning to this match! Kagiso steams in and delivers a shortish ball on middle, it shoots off the surface after landing and Karunaratne is surprised by the extra bounce. He takes his eyes off the ball and tries to fend it off. But it takes his gloves and loops up to second slip. A simple catch for Faf du Plessis. Perfect start for the Proteas.
Kusal Perera (W)b Dwaine Pretorius 30 34 4 0 88.24
11.3
D Pretorius to K Perera, OUT! Chopped on! Another set batsman goes without converting his start. Good length ball on off, Perera looks to cut but the ball is too close to his body. He still goes ahead with the shot and ends up getting an inside edge as the ball nips in a bit as well. The ball hits his pad and then goes on to disturb the stumps. He looks dejected as he was looking good in the middle. Last thing Sri Lanka wanted was to lose him, having lost Avishka. Pretorius gets his second of the game and this looks like an inspired selection from South Africa. The Islanders will have to rebuild once again here.
Avishka Fernandoc Faf du Plessis b Dwaine Pretorius 30 29 4 0 103.45
9.5
D Pretorius to A Fernando, OUT! One shot too many for Avishka Fernando and he departs. A length ball on off, Fernando stays back to heave it again over the leg side but gets a big top edge. It balloons in the air towards mid off where Faf du Plessis backtracks a bit and takes a fine tumbling catch. The 67-run stand is broken and South Africa will be relieved.
Kusal Mendisc Chris Morris b Dwaine Pretorius 23 51 2 0 45.1
27.1
D Pretorius to K Mendis, OUT! Caught! Third wicket for Pretorius. Mendis too cannot convert his start and the same problem continues for Sri Lanka. Pretorius bowls it on a back of a length outside off, Mendis looks to punch but does so uppishly. It goes to the left of cover-point. Morris, stationed there, dives in front to his left and takes a very good catch just above the ground on the practice pitch. Maybe the tall frame of Morris helped him there. Sri Lanka in deep trouble here. With every passing wicket, their hopes of staying alive in this tournament are diminishing.
Angelo Mathewsb Chris Morris 11 29 1 0 37.93
21.5
C Morris to A Mathews, OUT! Mathews drags it down! Another blow to Sri Lanka as their most experienced player falls. Not a delivery to be proud of, really. Morris has bowled a half-tracker outside off, Mathews has to reach out for it as he tries to pull after coming down the track a bit but he gets a fat inside edge onto the stumps. South Africa rejoice and yet another partnership which was blossoming is cut short.
Dhananjaya de Silvab JP Duminy 24 41 2 0 58.54
36.1
JP Duminy to de Silva, OUT! Duminy strikes first ball! He is all smiles. A very substandard shot selection from Dhananjaya and he is on his bike. A flighted delivery landing full around leg, de Silva tries to be too fancy here. Attempts for the reverse sweep but fails to get anything behind it. It goes right through him and rattles the stumps.
Jeevan Mendisc Dwaine Pretorius b Chris Morris 18 46 1 1 39.13
39.5
C Morris to J Mendis, OUT! Morris persists with bowling short and eventually manages to bounce out Jeevan. It's a nicely directed half-tracker, Mendis takes the challenge to pull it again but fails to middle his shot. It flies off the top edge and Pretorius runs across to his right from fine leg to complete the catch. Another partnership is broken in the 20s.
Thisara Pererac Kagiso Rabada b Andile Phehlukwayo 21 25 0 0 84
45.3
A Phehlukwayo to T Perera, OUT! It's a clean catch. Rabada has made a tough catch look very easy! Phehlukwayo digs in a short ball around off and Perera powers his pull shot across the line. But he fails to get enough meat behind his shot and Rabada runs in from deep square leg to catch it by diving forward. This is a big blow to Sri Lanka's hope of getting near 210-215.
Isuru Udanac & b Kagiso Rabada 17 32 1 0 53.13
48.3
K Rabada to I Udana, OUT! Caught and bowled. Sri Lanka are now nine down! Rabada hurls in a short ball around off, Udana tries to be brave with his pull shot but fails to get it anywhere close to the middle of his bat. It loops up straight in the air off the top edge and Rabada accepts it gleefully in his followthrough.

Lasith Malingac Faf du Plessis b Chris Morris 4 2 1 0 200
49.3
C Morris to L Malinga, OUT! Sri Lanka are all out for 203! Morris serves a length ball in the line of the stumps, Malinga hops back and attempts to loft it inside-out over extra cover. Fails to get the connection right and Faf du Plessis makes no mistake this time inside the ring. He just moves back a bit to complete the catch.

L Malinga to de Kock, OUT! Bowled! Typical Malinga. This is a vicious yorker on leg. De Kock looks to play the on drive but gets beaten. The ball flicks the leg pole. De Kock is standing shell-shocked. He does not know how it happened but he has just been beaten by a Slinga Malinga yorker. South Africa lose their first and Sri Lanka get an early wicket they wanted.
