  • Sri Lanka come into this match having registered back-to-back ODI victories over South Africa; the Lions had tasted defeat 11 times in a row immediately beforehand to the Proteas in this format however.
  • South Africa have managed to secure three bilateral ODI series (2+ games played) wins in succession over Sri Lanka ahead of this meeting; the Lions last beating South Africa in such a series in July 2013.
  • This will be the fifth bilateral ODI series (2+ matches played) between South Africa and Sri Lanka to have taken place in South Africa; the Proteas winning all four of the previous series on home soil.
  • South Africa have claimed wins in three of their last four ODI outings (L1), including their most recent fixture versus Pakistan at Newlands (January 2019) whilst Sri Lanka have suffered defeat in eight of their last nine games in this format (W1); they are currently enduring a three-game losing run in ODI cricket.
  • Sri Lanka have tasted defeat in each of their last seven ODI games when chasing; their opponents however, head into this contest having recorded victory in six of the last seven ODI matches when they have had to chase down a total (L1).
  • Sri Lanka and South Africa have been involved in five previous ODI games at the Wanderers, with the winner alternating every time; the Proteas registered a comprehensive seven-wicket win there in the most recent encounter between these nations at the Johannesburg venue (February 2017).
  • South Africa's seven-match winning streak at the Wanderers in ODIs came to an end last time, slumping to a one-sided defeat to Pakistan in January; it was the first time the Proteas fell to a loss at the venue in this format since January 2012, a match against Sri Lanka.
  • Hashim Amla (7,910) requires 90 runs to bring up 8,000 in ODIs, only three other batsman have ever reached the milestone for South Africa (Kallis, de Villiers & Gibbs); he opened his side's last bilateral ODI series with a century (108* v Pakistan) and recorded the best connection rate of any batsman in that series (95.3% - min 20+ runs scored).
  • Faf du Plessis (South Africa) scored 410 runs when his side last hosted a bilateral series against Sri Lanka, 149 than anybody else; he comes into this game having claimed back-to-back half-centuries for the Proteas.
  • Lasith Malinga needs just three dismissals to become Sri Lanka’s third-highest ODI wicket-taker; going above Sanath Jayasuriya (320) in that list.
