Commentary

  • 28.5
    Tabraiz Shamsi lbw b Lakshan Sandakan 2 (21)

    OUT! L.B.W. NOT OUT changed by umpire to OUT after REFERRAL. Lakshan Sandakan to Tabraiz Shamsi. Googly length ball, off stump on the front foot defending, hit pad to. Sri Lanka's emphatic victory is confirmed by the review.

    16 wickets have fallen today and South Africa after an encouraging morning have gone hurtling to defeat inside 29 overs in the afternoon session. South Africa have recorded their worst score since readmission. Sri Lanka opened the bowling with Dilruwan Perera (6-32) and Rangana Herath (3-38) and apart from five balls from Lakshan Sandakan that was all they needed.

    South Africa will be massively disappointed with that batting display. Too many batsmen looked unsure of their defensive technique and gave it away with reckless shots.
