  • 104.1

    OUT! Caught. Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Keshav Maharaj to Rangana Herath. Stock length ball, down leg side on the front foot sweeping, Gloved to leg slip, by Elgar. Finally the last wicket stand is broken! Maharaj does end up getting his ninth. Brilliant work from him. Herath is on the sweep, and the ball flicks the glove before popping up to leg slip off the pad. Rangana reviews, but the replays are clear. Sri Lanka all out for 338.

    So, South Africa were made to work hard for that. They now have a tricky 40 minute spell before the lunch break to survive. Can they start well with the bat to give confidence to the rest of the team?

  • 102.1

    FOUR! Keshav Maharaj to Akila Dananjaya. Stock ball back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot Late Cut, well timed past third man for 4 runs. Akila is showing he is very capable down the order for the hosts. Quality shot here. Springs back, plays it as late as possible, and chops the ball behind square for four.

  • 101.6

    Dale Steyn to Rangana Herath. Short, down leg side ducked, Left to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by de Kock.

  • 101.5

  • 101.4

    FOUR! Dale Steyn to Rangana Herath. Short, to leg on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. What a shot! Herath is hanging back and waiting for that length. Room to free the arms, and he hoicks it away to the mid wicket fence.

  • 101.3

    Dale Steyn to Akila Dananjaya. Back of a length, down leg side on the back foot flick, to fine leg for 1 run, fielded by Maharaj.

  • 101.1

    FOUR! Dale Steyn to Rangana Herath. Back of a length, to leg on the back foot pulling, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Herath greets Steyn into the attack with a powerful club through the onside. Not that short, but the veteran spinner is still able to get a sweet connection.

  • 100.6

    Keshav Maharaj to Akila Dananjaya. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the front foot pushing, to deep extra cover for 2 runs, fielded by Steyn.

    No wickets taken in either morning session of this Test so far. Looks like it is the best time to bat in the day. As this partnership goes on, itis just going to make things more difficult for the Proteas when they finally take this wicket. Advantage Sri Lanka.

  • 100.5

    Keshav Maharaj to Rangana Herath. Stock ball half volley, outside off stump on the front foot dropped, to short extra cover for 1 run, shy attempt by de Kock.

  • 34.5

    OUT! Caught. Dilruwan Perera to Kagiso Rabada. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, outside edge to first slip, by Mathews. Not the length to drive, and Rabada pays the price. Has a flash, the ball rags away to flick the outside edge, and Mathews gobbles it up at first slip. South Africa are bundled out for under 150 for the third time this series.

    An early tea taken, and Sri Lanka have decided not to enforce the follow-on. Fair enough decision. Batting last on this pitch will be near impossible for the Proteas. A huge lead of 214 for the hosts to build on in the evening. They are in total control.

  • 34.4

    Dilruwan Perera to Kagiso Rabada. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, to extra cover for no runs, fielded by Lakmal.

  • 34.3

  • 34.1

    Dilruwan Perera to Kagiso Rabada. Off break back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot defending, inside edge to short leg for no runs, fielded by Mendis.

  • End of Over 34
    Over 34. 1 run. Bowler: Akila Dananjaya. South Africa: 112/3 (rr 3.29)
  • 33.6

    APPEAL! Akila Dananjaya to Lungi Ngidi. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, hit pad to gully for no runs, fielded by Mathews, appeal made for L.B.W. More shouts from around the bat. Too much bounce this time, going well over the top.

  • 33.5

    Akila Dananjaya to Lungi Ngidi. Googly length ball, off stump on the front foot defending, inside edge to short leg for no runs, fielded by Mendis.

  • 33.4

    OUT! L.B.W. Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Akila Dananjaya to Dale Steyn. Googly length ball, off stump on the front foot defending, hit pad to. Steyn has to go this time! Another googly, not read again, and Akila gets it full enough this time for the finger to be raised. Reviewed by the batsman this time, but it doesn't save him. Turn past the inside edge, and impact was in front of middle. HawkEye says it is umpire's call, clipping the wickets. That is good enough! Five wicket haul for Akila.

  • 33.3

    APPEAL! Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Akila Dananjaya to Dale Steyn. Googly back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot defending, hit pad to for no runs, appeal made for L.B.W. Steyn gets in a tangle first up. Doesn't pick the wrong'un from Akila, and is pinned on the back foot. He is deep in the crease, and gets hit on the back thigh. Reviewed by Sri Lanka, but HawkEye shows it going over the top.

  • 33.2

    OUT! L.B.W. Akila Dananjaya to Quinton de Kock. Off break length ball, middle stump on the front foot defending, hit pad to. Stone dead. South Africa are folding. De Kock expects turn, and doesn't get it. Happened to many others this innings as well. Plays all around it, gets beaten on the inside edge, and is trapped in front. Started to walk before the umpire raised the finger.

  • 33.1

    Akila Dananjaya to Quinton de Kock. Off break half volley, outside off stump on the front foot defending, to silly mid off for no runs, fielded by Perera.

    Akila Dananjaya to Kagiso Rabada. Off break length ball, off stump on the front foot defending, missed to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Dickwella.

  • 31.5

    OUT! Caught. Akila Dananjaya to Keshav Maharaj. Googly half volley, middle stump moves in front sweeping, top edge in the air uncontrolled to short fine leg, by Karunaratne. Out the back of the hand from Akila. Maharaj tries his efforts at the sweep. Doesn't produce a good one, though. Rolled the wrists too soon, and the ball lobs up to short fine leg off the back of the bat. Soft dismissal. South Africa are crumbling.

  • 31.4

    Akila Dananjaya to Quinton de Kock. Off break half volley, off stump on the front foot working, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Herath.

  • 31.3

    APPEAL! Akila Dananjaya to Quinton de Kock. Off break length ball, off stump on the front foot sweeping, hit body to silly point for no runs, fielded by de Silva, appeal made for L.B.W. Ambitious shout. The ball bounces so much, that it strikes de Kock in the armpit. No chance of that hitting the stumps.

  • 31.2

    Akila Dananjaya to Quinton de Kock. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, to point for no runs, fielded by Karunaratne.

  • 31.1

  • 30.4

    Dilruwan Perera to Keshav Maharaj. Off break length ball, middle stump on the front foot defending, to short leg for no runs, fielded by Mendis.

  • 30.3

    OUT! Caught. Dilruwan Perera to Temba Bavuma. Off break back of a length, off stump on the back foot flick, to short leg, by Mendis. Mendis makes an incredibly tough catch look like the easiest thing in the world. He is something else in that fielding position. Hard luck on Bavuma. He goes back in the crease, tucking off the hip into the legside. Off the face of the bat, and sticks into the hands of short leg. Went quickly, but snapped up by Kusal. Class.

  • 30.2

    Dilruwan Perera to Quinton de Kock. Off break length ball, to leg on the front foot working, to square leg for 1 run, fielded by Mendis.

  • 80.6

    Theunis de Bruyn to Niroshan Dickwella. Length ball, off stump on the back foot glancing, to mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Steyn.

    Suranga Lakmal calls his side in. You would think that they have more than enough runs already, it's probably just down to how long it'll take Sri Lanka to bowl South Africa out.

  • 79.1

    OUT! Caught. Keshav Maharaj to Angelo Mathews. Stock length ball, outside off stump no foot movement pushing, outside edge to first slip, by du Plessis. Du Plessis takes a good catch diving to his right to end a solid innings from Mathews. He just poked his bat at the ball, a lack of concentration from the Sri Lankan.

    Dale Steyn c Danushka Gunathilaka b Rangana Herath 6 (6)

    OUT! Caught. Rangana Herath to Dale Steyn. Stock length ball, outside off stump down the track driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long off, by Gunathilaka. Herath ends with six. Steyn jumps out the crease again, nowhere near the pitch, and the connection isn't good this time. Sliced, and off the bottom end of the bat. Long on runs round to take a comfortable catch and finish off the match.

    A great fighting effort from South Africa today, with a pleasing maiden century from Theunis de Bruyn, but they were always going to be on the losing side after their first innings display. The hosts are experts in these conditions, on these pitches. Very tough for any touring side. An improvement from the first Test, but still a good beating handed out by Sri Lanka. They take it 2-0.

  • 86.1

    SIX! Rangana Herath to Dale Steyn. Stock length ball, off stump down the track driving, well timed in the air under control over long off for 6 runs. Steyn is going to have some fun as well. He waltzes out the crease, and dispatches Herath over mid off. Hits the rope on the full.

    FOUR! Dilruwan Perera to Lungi Ngidi. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Agricultural. Classic number eleven bashing. Goes with the spin, and mows it away to cow corner.

    Kagiso Rabada c Angelo Mathews b Dilruwan Perera 18 (37)

    OUT! Caught. Dilruwan Perera to Kagiso Rabada. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, outside edge to first slip, by Mathews. Extra bounce off the new ball, and the outside edge is taken from Rabada's defence. Loops up to Mathews at first slip, who snaps it up with ease. A decent knock from Kagiso, looked promising. Very simple dismissal to end his stay.

    Theunis de Bruyn b Rangana Herath 101 (232)

    OUT! Bowled. Rangana Herath to Theunis de Bruyn. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the front foot, shoulders arms to. He's a genius in these conditions, is Herath. Rags the previous delivery miles past the outside edge. With that in the back of de Bruyn's mind, he withdraws the bat on this ball expecting a similar amount of spin off the surface. Rangana plonks it in the same spot, but get the ball to run on with the arm. Skids through to uproot the off stump, and send de Bruyn on his way.

    FOUR! Rangana Herath to Theunis de Bruyn. Stock ball half volley, middle stump on the front foot sweeping, well timed past fine leg for 4 runs. Deft touch to paddle the ball very fine, and it trickles into the rope to bring up a tremendous century. His first in Tests, and this innings will have definitely earned him a spot in the team for the foreseeable future.
