South Africa

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Quinton de Kock (W)run out (Lakshan Sandakan) 20 11 4 0 181.82
3.4
de Silva to de Kock, OUT! De Kock landed himself in trouble and that brings his downfall. De Silva darts this on the pads of de Kock who misses his sweep. The ball hits his pads and goes towards the short fine leg fielder, Sandakan. The players appeal for LBW but the umpire stays put. De Kock was more interested in watching the umpire than his partner's call. As a result, he is late to accelerate and his speed was not enough to beat Sandakan's accurate throw at the non-striker's end. Dhananjaya collects the ball and does the rest. The umpire takes it upstairs and Quinton is found short. This is a body blow to South Africa.
Hashim Amlac Dasun Shanaka b Dhananjaya de Silva 0 4 0 0 0
1.5
de Silva to H Amla, OUT! Another duck for Amla, got one in the last ODI as well. Dhananjaya has deceived Hashim with his variation. This one is like a carrom ball, flicked with his fingers. He pitches it a bit short outside off and it skids through the surface. Amla is early into his shot as he looks to loft it over covers. No timing whatsoever and it's a simple catch for Shanaka inside the ring.
Reeza Hendricksb Akila Dananjaya 19 16 2 1 118.75
5.3
A Dananjaya to R Hendricks, OUT! Great captaincy by Mathews to give one more over to Akila inside the Powerplay. A leg break this time by the mystery bowler. Definitely not picked by Hendricks who sits down to play the slog sweep. Fails to connect as it turns away ever so slightly from around off to beat his bat and hit the off stump. South Africa in big trouble, three down inside the first 6 overs.
JP Duminy (C)lbw b Dhananjaya de Silva 3 8 0 0 37.5
7.6
de Silva to JP Duminy, OUT! Three reds and the South African skipper has to walk back. A very good review from the fielding side and they get a big wicket. A slider from Dhananjaya, landing around off and skidding in. Duminy looks to reverse sweep this but does not get any bat to it. It goes on and raps him on the pads. A huge appeal from the players but the umpire is not interested. They have a chat and Mathews takes the DRS. Replays show that the bat didn't touch the ball and it hit the batsman in line. Also the ball would have gone onto hit the leg stump. A huge roar erupts as they see it on the giant screen. JP walks back. Dhananjaya has been sublime with the ball.
Heinrich Klaasenc Kusal Mendis b Lakshan Sandakan 18 16 1 1 112.5
10.1
L Sandakan to H Klaasen, OUT! Another one goes down! Half the batting side is back in the hut and they are digging a hole for themselves. Sandakan drags this one outside off. Klaasen reaches for it and looks to slice this one. Gets it off the outer half and the ball balloons towards point. Kusal Mendis gets under the ball and makes no mistake.
David Millerc Dinesh Chandimal b Akila Dananjaya 14 16 2 0 87.5
13.3
A Dananjaya to D Miller, OUT! And Miller falls in front of the mighty Akila. South Africa's last hope tries playing an almighty slog sweep over the leg side. It's an off spinner and Miller has not accounted for the spin. As a result, it takes the top edge, balloons in the air towards short mid-wicket and Chandimal calls for it. Runs across towards the chance and takes the skier safely. Hard to see South Africa lasting their full quota of 20 overs now.
Andile Phehlukwayob Lakshan Sandakan 0 3 0 0 0
10.4
L Sandakan to A Phehlukwayo, OUT! Bowled round his legs! Brilliant from Sri Lanka. Abysmal cricket from South Africa. Loopy ball on leg. Phehlukwayo looks to reverse sweep this ball to the off side. He cannot make contact with the ball and it goes on to shatter the leg stump. Beauty from Sandakan!
Kagiso Rabadalbw b Lakshan Sandakan 0 2 0 0 0
10.6
L Sandakan to K Rabada, OUT! And it's plumb. Three in an over for Sandakan. South Africa are in all sorts of trouble. This one is a bit on the shorter side. It rushes into Rabada who goes onto his back foot. Gets beaten for pace and the ball hits him on the back leg. Another appeal and the umpire nods his head. Rabada chats with Miller and they take it up. Replay shows us that the impact was with the umpire's call and the ball would have gone onto hit the middle of middle. Four runs and three wickets off the over!
Junior Dalanot out 12 17 1 0 70.59
Lungi Ngidic Dinesh Chandimal b Kasun Rajitha 4 6 0 0 66.67
15.6
K Rajitha to L Ngidi, OUT! Number 9 goes down and South Africa are 7 short of the 100-run mark. Rajitha puts his bowling arsenal on display. Hurls in a knuckle delivery. On a length around off and angling in, Ngidi is quite early into his heave across the line and edges it behind to Chandimal. He is not dropping those.
Tabraiz Shamsic Dinesh Chandimal b Isuru Udana 0 2 0 0 0
16.4
I Udana to T Shamsi, Udana speeds in from 'round the wicket and angles in a back of a length delivery in line of the stumps. Shamsi rocks back to play at it with a straight bat. Tries punching or lofting probably down the ground but gets a thick outside edge behind. Chandimal grabs his third catch of the night. SOUTH AFRICA ARE ALL OUT FOR 98!

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Kusal Pererac Tabraiz Shamsi b Kagiso Rabada 3 3 0 0 100
0.4
K Rabada to K Perera, OUT! GONE! Rabada strikes and strikes early. Exactly what South Africa needed. This is just ahead of a length on off, Kusal Perera just like he does, stands tall and tries to flat-bat it over mid on. He hits it hard but does not get the desired elevation. Shamsi at that position takes a sharp catch. Pin-drop silence in the stadium as Perera walks back cheaply.
Kusal Mendislbw b Kagiso Rabada 1 3 0 0 33.33
0.6
K Rabada to K Mendis, OUT! Three reds and Mendis has been given his marching orders. Rabada is breathing fire out there. South Africa can now believe as they have both the openers back in the hut in the first over itself. Brilliant by Rabada, he follows the bumper with a corker of a yorker on middle. Mendis is a little too late to get his bat down and is struck on the pads. The players appeal but the umpire does not agree. Rabada feels it is 50-50 but Duminy goes for the review. Replays roll in and they show no bat involved. The disturbance on Snicko was of the bat hitting the ground. Further, Hawk Eye shows it to be pitching in line and hitting the leg pole. End of a double-wicket over for South Africa. They started well with the bat by striking three boundaries in the first over and now have taken two wickets in the first over with the ball.

Dhananjaya de Silvac Andile Phehlukwayo b Junior Dala 31 26 4 2 119.23
7.4
J Dala to de Silva, OUT! In the air... taken! Dala provides the breakthrough but one would feel it's a little too late. A short ball outside off, de Silva tries to drag his pull but only manages to get a top edge which balloons towards mid on. Phehlukwayo there completes a dolly. Dhananjaya walks back dejected as he knows he has thrown it away. Nevertheless, his innings has kept Sri Lanka on the front foot.
Angelo Mathews (C)c Heinrich Klaasen b Tabraiz Shamsi 0 3 0 0 0
8.3
T Shamsi to A Mathews, OUT! That is a rippaa!!! Klaasen has just plucked that out of thin air. Mathews goes for a duck and South Africa still hanging in there. Shamsi gives it air and lands it around the pads as it comes turning back in. Angelo once again tries to work it on the leg side but does not keep it down. It goes uppishly towards backward short leg where Klaasen sticks his left hand out and snaps it inches above the surface. He throws the ball up in delight as Mathews starts trudging back to the dressing room. 36 more needed with 6 wickets in hand. Game on?
Dasun Shanakac Reeza Hendricks b Junior Dala 16 16 3 0 100
11.5
J Dala to D Shanaka, OUT! Still some twist left in this seemingly finished tale? Maybe. Maybe. Short of a length into the body, Shanaka goes across the line with a heave over backward square leg. Unfortunately for him, it goes off the top edge and doesn't have the distance on it as a result. Reeza Hendricks in the deep settles under the ball and takes a safe catch.
Thisara Pererab Tabraiz Shamsi 0 2 0 0 0
12.2
T Shamsi to T Perera, OUT! He's bowled 'em! Thisara 'The Finisher' is now Thisara 'The Finished'. What a ball this though. Shasmi tosses this up and bowls the googly around off, Thisara doesn't pick it up as he leaves a huge gap between bat and pad while trying to defend. Right through the gate and the stumps are disturbed. A little too late perhaps for South Africa. Or is it? 16 more needed.
Akila Dananjayab JP Duminy 2 7 0 0 28.57
14.1
JP Duminy to A Dananjaya, OUT! He's started well for sure. Wicket off the very first ball of his spell. Bowls this a bit slower through the air in line of the stumps, Dananjaya expects this to turn and plays away from his body, leaving a big gap between bat and pad. The ball doesn't spin at all, keeps on going straight and crashes into the furniture behind. 11 needed in 35 balls. 3 wickets left for Sri Lanka.
