Post wins in Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka's African sojourn continues as they head to South Africa for an eight-week tour. The challenge presented in Zimbabwe will be miniscule in comparison to what they will face in South Africa. The Lankans last played a Test series in South Africa in 2011-12 and they managed to win the Durban Test but despite the victory, they went on to lose the series 1-2. In fact, that was the first Test that Sri Lanka won in South Africa. All the four series they have played in the country have ended in Sri Lanka defeats. Still in a rebuilding phase, Sri Lanka will eye a turnaround.

To South Africa's credit, they won in Sri Lanka in 2014 and have not lost a Test series against Sri Lanka in 10 years. The series best remembered for the world record 624-run stand between Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene. Sri Lanka-South Africa contests have provided enough entertainment in the past and this promises to be another interesting tour. After a dismal start to the year, South Africa's performance curve has gradually moved upwards. In the last quarter of the year, South Africa have beaten New Zealand and Australia in Tests and whitewashed Australia 5-0.

Faf du Plessis has replaced AB de Villiers as the full-time Test skipper and is relishing the role. Meanwhile, the side is sweating over the fitness of two of their stalwarts, de Villiers and Dale Steyn.

The rebuilding Sri Lankan side under Angelo Mathews will start their tour against South African Invitation XI at Potchefstroom. Sri Lanka have whitewashed Australia 3-0 earlier this year before meting out the same treatment to Zimbabwe. South Africa are fifth in the ICC Test rankings and Sri Lanka are at No.7.

The first Test begins on Boxing Day at Port Elizabeth. The second Test starts on January 2, 2017 at Cape Town. The final Test will be hosted at the New Wanderers at Johannesburg.
The Test series will be followed T20Is. Centurion, Johannesburg and Cape Town are the venues. The ODI series begins on January 28. The sides have played 60 ODIs so far with both teams winning 29 apiece. The ODI series will start at Port Elizabeth and the other venues are Durban, Johannesburg, Cape Town and Centurion.
