South Africa Vs Sri Lanka Live Cricket Score - Live Score, 5th ODI Match - Full Scorecard

L Ngidi to A Fernando, OUT! Edged and gone this time! The extra fielder placed pays dividends. On the previous ball, there were two slips and the ball escaped. Faf du Plessis got the third slip in and South Africa have their first wicket. On a good length again, outside off, Fernando looks to defend but this time, he is defeated by the extra bounce. Gets a thick outside edge which flies straight to Aiden Markram at third slip.

K Rabada to U Tharanga, OUT! Caught behind! 2 wickets in the span of 5 balls and both the openers are dismissed. Poor shot from Tharanga and his series ends on a bad note. Full and outside off, Upul looks to drive but before the foot can move, the ball moves. He is clearly beaten by pace and nicks it behind. Easy catch for Quinton de Kock.

I Tahir to O Fernando, OUT! Caught! Tahir strikes in his very first over. Tossed up delivery on off, Fernando looks to defend but gets a thick outside edge. Faf du Plessis who is placed at slip for the exact same thing takes a very good low catch. A budding partnership of 49 comes to an end and Sri Lanka lose their 3rd wicket.

A Nortje to K Mendis, OUT! What were the two batsmen doing there? A huge mix-up and Mendis, the man who Sri Lanka would have wanted to bat till the end has been run out. Shorter length delivery on middle, Mendis pulls it away to wide of deep mid-wicket. They run the first one quickly. Then there is the suicide. Perera calls for the second and then sets off. He then stops, then starts but then stops again. Kusal Mendis till that time is half way down the track and is in no man's land. Ngidi throws the ball at bowler's end and Nortje takes off the bails. A very disappointing way to get out. Mendis was looking excellent out inn the middle but has to go back in such a poor fashion.

I Tahir to A Perera, OUT!!! Excellent catch this by Du Plessis. Quicker leg spinner on off, Perera looks to defend but gets a thick outside edge. Du Plessis at first slip reacts quickly and takes a very good low catch. Tahir has the last laugh and he is running the length of the field in celebration.

K Rabada to P Perera, OUT! Two-in-two for Rabada. Back of a length delivery on off, Perera looks to pull it across the line. He gets a top edge on this one. The ball goes high up in the sky but not far away from the playing pitch. Rabada calls it as his, settles under it and takes it comfortably. Rabada on a hat-trick now.

A Nortje to T Perera, OUT! Thisara Perera holes out! A well directed bouncer from Nortje. It is on middle and leg. Perera looks to pull but it is too close to his body. He pulls it straight to deep mid-wicket. Tahir is placed there runs in and takes a good catch. Thisara trying to up the run rate had to go after Nortje but a body blow this for Sri Lanka.

A Phehlukwayo to de Silva, OUT! Caught! The short ball ploy is working for the Proteas. Phehlukwayo bowls it short, it must be a slower one as it sticks into the surface. De Silva who attempts the pull shot, but ends up getting a bottom edge as he is little too early for the shot. The ball flies straight to the mid-wicket fielder, Duminy there take a dolly. Into the lower order are South Africa now.

K Rabada to I Udana, OUT! Tahir you beauty. Shorter delivery on off, Udana looks to pull it but it comes off the upper half of the bat. Tahir at deep mid-wicket is facing right at the sun but still manages to keep his eyes on the ball. The ball is going away from him slightly but he adjusts well and takes a great catch. An excellent cameo from Udana comes to an end.

A Nortje to A Dananjaya, OUT! Caught! Shorter length delivery on off, Dananjaya looks to pull but gets no timing on that one and the ball goes straight to JP Duminy at mid-wicket. Sri Lanka bowled out for 225.

L Malinga to de Kock, OUT! Quinton holes out. A big wicket for Sri Lanka. Length delivery on middle, de Kock looks to flick it over the square leg fielder. He does not time it well and finds the man to almost perfection. Avishka Fernando there runs in a bit and takes a comfortable catch. Brilliant fielding placement there from the skipper and he gets his man. The man-in form Quinton de Kock walks back. Ideal start for the Lankans, wickets is what they need if they are to defend this total and they have got one early.

T Perera to du Plessis, OUT! Gone! Du Plessis departs. Good length delivery outside off. Du Plessis loses his calm after not being able to score off Thisara. He comes down the track and looks to slap it to the off side but gets an outside edge. Kusal Mendis behind the stumps takes a regulation catch. The 70-run stand is broken. Lanka will hope get a couple quickly now.
