South Africa tour Sri Lanka

[RUDI]

Nice to see De Kock and Du Plessis playing the Sri-Lankan spinners more aggressively, over 65% off runs coming in boundaries so far. We should win this ...

Congratulations Reza Hendricks for 102 on debut, he become 3rd SOuthafrican after Ingram and Bavuma who hits 100 on debut.

Very good victory by Sri Lanka. Finally they've shown the fight that they are capable of. Bowled and batted brilliantly. Making 300 against a strong side in 40 overs this no joke. Came as a surprise for me initially when I saw the score.

I think batting wise, Sri Lanka have a lot of potential, they've got decent batsmen who need that confidence and backing to get the job done. Too much chopping and changing the lineup is hurting SL. If only they had a good fast bowler playing alongside Lakmal, it wouldn't be a bad side at all. But still, their bowling looks awful. They need decent fast bowlers.
