South Africa Vs Sri Lanka Live Cricket Score - Live Score, 2nd ODI Match - Full Scorecard

T Perera to de Kock, OUT! Another one missed! De Kock is really distraught as he has to walk away. A length ball on the hips, Quinton looks to flick it away but the ball takes the top edge and flies straight in the air. Stays there for a long time but Dickwella settles under it and takes an easy catch. Thisara Perera is happy but not the batsman. De Kock has not got an ODI hundred since 2017. He has thrown it away yet again. He knew he was gone once the ball went in the air and looks down at the ground in disgust. There was a hundred for the taking there, maybe even a double but unfortunately it's not to be. End of an incredible innings, there was so much more there for the taking. Such a disappointment!

L Malinga to R Hendricks, OUT! Taken! That is the first one down! The captain brings himself back and breaks the 91-run stand. A bouncer on middle, Hendricks looks to hook the ball away but does not control the ball well. It goes off the top edge and flies to long leg. Akila Dananjaya there makes no mistake. Sri Lanka finally have the breakthrough, a much-needed one for them. They will look for a couple more quickly now.

T Perera to du Plessis, OUT! Thisara Perera strikes again. Good length delivery on off. It is a leg cutter from Perera at 124 kph. The ball keeps low after pitching on one of the cracks. Du Plessis is way too early into his attempted pull shot across the line and the ball hits the off pole. Huge wicket for Sri Lanka as the South African skipper was looking very good out in the middle. The visitors needed some luck and they have got that in the form of some low bounce. This is a blow for South Africa, this wicket might just restrict their final total 20 runs lesser.

T Perera to van der Dussen, OUT! Caught! Rassie van der Dussen holes out and for the first time in his ODI career, he walks out for a single digit score. Bouncer from Perera, Rassie is early in his pull and gets a top edge. The ball goes very high but does not have the distance. Kasun Rajitha there runs in front and dives to take an excellent catch. Thisara Perera dragging Sri Lanka back into this game. His second wicket and he has got rid of both the well-set de Kock and the dangerous Rassie van der Dussen today.

V Fernando to W Mulder, OUT! What has happened there? Mulder has been bowled around his legs. A cutter landing just outside leg, 112 clicks. Mulder gets too far across but fails to put bat on ball as he goes for the flick. The ball holds its line and goes onto disturb the leg stump with the angle. A single bail falls down and Wiaan has to go. Fernando after a tough day so far finally has something to smile about. Meanwhile, Mulder who was looking ominous is bewildered as to how he got out there. Nevertheless, another break at a good timing for the visitors.

de Silva to D Miller, OUT! Miller is stumped! In dire straits, South Africa. Dhananjaya serves a flighted ball around off, it lands full and turns away slightly. Miller advances down the track to play the flick shot but gets beaten due to the little away spin. Dickwella is quick to take the bails off and now only the tail is left for the Proteas. This is an outstanding comeback from Sri Lanka. Restricting South Africa under 265-270 (if not lesser) will be brilliant from their point of view.

de Silva to A Phehlukwayo, OUT! Lobbed up off the outside half and into the hands of point! South Africa have lost their sixth and suddenly look in some trouble. A short and quicker ball outside off, Phehlukwayo rocks back and looks to cut it, but the ball goes off the outside half and lobs towards point. Avishka takes a step or two back and takes an easy catch. Around 12 overs left now and another wicket could really mean that the Proteas could be in risk of being bowled out without finishing their quota of 50 overs. Sri Lanka fighting back hard and well in this game!

K Rajitha to K Rabada, OUT! A fantastic diving catch by the Lankan keeper! Rabada is a goner and South Africa have lost their 8th wicket. Good length delivery outside off, Rabada has a poke at it. He gets a thick outside edge on it. Niroshan Dickwella behind the stumps dives across to his left and takes a good low catch. South Africa have gone from 220/4 to 239/8. What a collapse, this!

L Malinga to A Nortje, OUT! Malinga-special! A lethal toe-crusher, right in the line of the stumps. Too quick for Nortje. He tries to dig it out but his bat comes down late. Hit right in front of the sticks and the umpire raises his finger immediately after the lbw appeal is made. Malinga is all smiles, his second wicket this evening.

A Dananjaya to L Ngidi, OUT! No, Ngidi's back leg is in the air. That will be it for South Africa, bowled out for 251! Flighted full ball on off, spinning away, Lungi stretches forward in an attempt to heave it over the leg side but misses the ball completely. Dickwella wastes no time in taking the bails off. He appeals and the square leg umpire goes upstairs. The replays roll in and it confirms that Ngidi is stumped.

K Rabada to N Dickwella, OUT! The first one is gone! This is Rabada's 100th wicket in ODIs, the third quickest to reach this landmark for South Africa after Imran Tahir and Morne Morkel. A short of a length ball on middle, Dickwella looks to heave it away on the leg side. But he gets a top edge and the ball goes miles in the air. De Kock runs backward and settles under the ball before pouching it and taking a good catch. That was just the start that South Africa would have wanted but not what the visitors would like.

L Ngidi to A Fernando, OUT! Ngidi has one now! Avishka is bowled! A length ball on the off stump line, Avishka looks to pull across the line but fails to put bat on ball. It goes on to knock top of off stump. The perfect ball! South Africa are pumped up here! This is absolutely unneeded from Sri Lanka though. The target is not such a big one and such rash shots are not needed. Playing across the line was a bad idea against the new ball and it has proved costly here. Sri Lanka need 223 runs more in 269 balls.

A Nortje to K Perera, OUT! Nortje strikes first ball! Three down now are the Lankans. A huge wicket this, that of the magnificent Kusal Perera. A shortish length ball on the middle and leg stump line, at 145 clicks. Perera wants to pat it down on the leg side but closes the face of the bat early. Is surprised by the pace and extra zip on that one as the ball takes the leading edge and lobs towards cover-point. Miller runs across to his left from point and takes a good catch. Faf du Plessis was running to the right as well but does well to stay out of the way of Miller. South Africa surely have a stronghold in the game now!

A Nortje to O Fernando, OUT! No, it is not too high! The ball is clipping the top of leg stump. Oshada has to leave! A length ball on middle and going on straight with a slight hint of reverse. Fernando misses his flick and gets hit above the knee roll. The players appeal and the finger goes up. Oshada reviews immediately without consulting his partner. The replays though show that there was no inside edge and the ball is clipping the top of leg stump. The on-field decision stays. Oshada has to depart but does not take a review with him. Sri Lanka in dire straits, needing 160 more for a win off 179 balls with half the side back in the pavilion.

I Tahir to O Fernando, OUT! RUN OUT! Huge, huge moment in the game! Lots of confusion in the middle sees Mendis walk back. A flatter one outside off, Oshada dabs it towards short third man and is ball-watching. His partner though, looks for a single. Oshada does not move for a moment but then looks to complete the run. Mendis stops and starts and stops and starts, and meanwhile, Nortje picks up the ball and hits the stumps at the striker's end. End of Kusal Mendis and South Africa are on top here!

K Rabada to de Silva, OUT! Caught! Another soft dismissal for Sri Lanka. Full length delivery on middle and leg, de Silva flicks it uppishly and straight to the Protea skipper at short mid-wicket. The writing is on the wall for the visiting team. Rabada has bowled brilliantly today and gets his second of the match. South Africa into the Lankan tail now.

I Tahir to T Perera, OUT! Final nail in the coffin for Sri Lanka. Tahir is on his bike and up in celebration. Even after conceding a biggie on the previous ball, Tahir dares to flight this ball. He serves a googly which lands full and wide outside off. Thisara latches onto it and tries to play a powerful shot over the off side but doesn't account for the away spin. Ends up slicing it in the air towards sweeper cover where David Miller moves across to his left and takes the catch safely.

K Rabada to A Dananjaya, OUT! Caught! Rabada gets his third. Back of a length delivery on off, Akila looks to play across the line but mistimes his pull shot completely. Ends up chipping it towards the mid-wicket fielder. Wiaan Mulder there takes a very easy catch running to his right. Dananjaya showed fight but cannot do much and South Africa are just a wicket away now.

I Tahir to K Rajitha, OUT! There goes the Imran-train again! Rajitha is a one-ball visitor. Tahir bowls the zooter to the tail-ender. Rajitha does not keep the ball out as the bat comes down late. Raps him on the pads first and the umpire's finger goes up immediately. On a roll are Imran and his team. They just need 2 wickets to win now.

L Ngidi to L Malinga, OUT! All over! SOUTH AFRICA WIN BY 113 RUNS! Ngidi digs in a heavy ball outside off at 137 kph, Malinga goes back and tries to smash it over the infield on the off side. But all he manages is to hit it aerially from the toe end of his bat and straight into the hands of Steyn (sub) at covers. The South African players are ecstatic and the crowd is also very happy. Time for the customary handshakes.
