|
9.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Wanindu Hasaranga draws first blood and it is a big wicket of Quinton de Kock. Tossed up, on off. Quinton de Kock gets low and looks to go for the slog sweep. He does so, but does not connect well. Infact, he gets a top edge on that one. The ball flies high in the air and goes towards deep mid-wicket. Charith Asalanka settles under it and takes a sharp catch. 73/1

| Reeza Hendricks | 38 | 30 | 3 | 1 | 126.66 |
|
11.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Sri Lanka are back in the game. Wanindu Hasaranga gets his second wicket and also gets rid of another set batsman, Reeza Hendricks. He serves a floated ball, full and around middle. Reeza Hendricks gets low and looks to sweep it away. He only manages to get a top edge on it. The ball goes towards short fine leg. Maheesh Theekshana settles under it and takes an easy catch. 79/2

| Aiden Markram | 48 | 33 | 1 | 2 | 145.45 |
|
18.5 OUT! CAUGHT! This is a brilliant comeback from the captain. Markram makes room on the off side, Shanaka sees it and serves it slow and outside off, on a length. Markram had to reach for it and ends up edging it towards short third man, where Dushmantha Chameera takes a simple catch. 152/4

| Heinrich Klaasen | 2 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 50 |
|
13 OUT! LBW! Three wickets in quick succession and Sri Lanka are right in this game. Their spinners are doing an incredible job to pull things back. A tossed up ball, full and on middle, it lands and spins away. Klaasen gets on his knee and looks to sweep but misses and gets rapped on the back pad. They appeal and up goes the finger. Klaasen straightaway reviews it. UltraEdge shows no bat involved. Ball tracker shows impact is umpire's call and wickets is also umpire's call. So, the on-field decision stays. 87/3

| David Miller | 26 | 15 | 2 | 1 | 173.33 |
|
19.3 OUT! An important wicket for Sri Lanka at this stage as Miller could have made a difference. A short ball, on middle. Miller tries to pull but gets a top edge towards square leg where Avishka Fernando takes a good catch. 156/5

5.5 OUT! RUN OUT! Good effort in the field by Anrich Nortje. He has found the first breakthrough. Rabada serves a length ball, on off. Avishka Fernando pulls it towards mid on. The batter takes off for a single. Anrich Nortje comes running in, collects the ball and he scores a direct hit at the non-striker's end. The umpire takes it upstairs to confirm. The replays roll in and show us that Fernando was well short of the crease. He has to walk back to the dressing room. 34/1

| Bhanuka Rajapaksa | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
6.1 OUT! LBW! This is the first time Keshav Maharaj is captaining his side in a T20I game. He strikes on his very first delivery as a captain. Bhanuka Rajapaksa got two ducks in the ODI series and then he was left out of the final ODI game. He still continues to hunt for his form, as he gets dismissed on a duck yet again in this series. Floated and around off. The ball turns in off the pitch, Bhanuka Rajapaksa comes across and looks to flick it away but misses. He gets rapped on his back leg. Maharaj appeals and the umpire raises his finger in a flash. Bhanuka Rajapaksa decides to take it upstairs. The UltraEdge shows no bat is involved. The Ball Tracker shows it is umpire's call on ball hitting the wickets. Even, the review could not save him. 34/2

| Charith Asalanka | 6 | 19 | 0 | 0 | 31.57 |
|
11.1 OUT! TAKEN! Tabraiz Shamsi is pumped up! The dot balls were building and someone had to go for a big shot! A full ball, on middle, it lands and spins away from the left-hander. Charith Asalanka gets on his knee and goes for the slog sweep. He gets more elevation than distance. Ends up hitting it straight in the hands of Dwaine Pretorius who takes a good low catch at deep square leg. Sri Lanka in deep trouble now. 68/3

| Dasun Shanaka C | 16 | 14 | 1 | 0 | 114.28 |
|
15 OUT! TIMBER! South Africa strike every time a partnership goes on to build. Bjorn Fortuin steams and serves it full and angling on middle. This was very full and quicker. Dasun Shanaka is too late to get his bat down and the ball sneaks and disturbs the stumps. 95/4

| Wanindu Hasaranga | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
15.5 OUT! CAUGHT! And finally, Dwaine Pretorius gets his first wicket. He serves a slower full-length ball, around off. Hasaranga looks to go big but this one proved to be a costly one. He lifts it towards long off. Reeza Hendricks was there in the deep, who made the catch look so easy. 102/5

| Dhananjaya de Silva | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 50 |

16.1 OUT! CLEANED UP! Anrich Nortje comes back into the attack and strikes on his very first delivery. He bowls a slower one, full and on middle. Dhananjaya de Silva stays back and looks to push it to the off side but misses. The ball goes through and castles the stumps. Sri Lanka slip further. 104/6
