DRAW
Inn Break
South Africa make progress in the World Test Championship table while the loss has dampened Lanka's hope of making the finals. The trophy has been handed over to Temba Bavuma who joins his teammates now. That is all from this game and the tour. Hope you'll enjoy the coverage. Till then, cheers and goodbye!
Temba Bavuma is the PLAYER OF THE SERIES! He says it is good to be back, it was frustrating but now he enjoys being out there. Mentions he’s happy he got an opportunity and he did well. States Durban was difficult but he tried to bat with intent and it came off well. Adds it is rare when the game goes till the 5th day and it was in the balance for a lot of time and credit to Lanka for the way they went about their business. Ends by saying the batters were really good and everybody chipped in when needed and the WTC table looks good now and he hopes they can continue the good work.
Dhananjaya de Silva says this game was tight, the team fought hard but they weren’t good enough to come out on top. States the conditions are different but the bowling attack was good, even the spinners did really well. Ends by saying they played well but the result wasn’t on their side and he hopes they can keep getting better and he’s looking forward to the series against Australia.
The Player of the Match, Dane Paterson says he feels great but it was a team effort and he’s very happy for his side. Mentions it is a very good feeling and he’s very happy they won the game. Adds he loves bowling and he enjoys putting in the work. Ends by saying he didn’t notice he got three in the over but the emotions are sinking in now and he hopes they can continue to do well.
...Presentation...
At the end of Day 4, Sri Lanka lost five wickets and a lot of hope as well but the partnership between Dhananjaya de Silva and Kusal Mendis in the final session showed something special was building up for the visitors. However, this wasn't the case as South Africa got the duo in no time and cleaned up the tail by keeping things very simple. Keshav Maharaj showed his experience on a flat pitch and ended with his 10th five-fer in Test cricket.
Sri Lanka in reply batted really well as compared to their poor outing in the first match. The top five made massive contributions and ended just 30 shy of the hosts first innings score. Dane Paterson was the pick of the lot as he picked up five wickets. The onus was on the hosts' side and once again, in the second innings South Africa's batting compartment stepped up. Prabath Jayasuriya scalped five wickets but Sri Lanka had a mountain to climb as they needed more than 300 runs to win in the fourth innings which is never easy while touring a country which possesses a lot of threat with the ball.
It was a complete performance from South Africa! After winning the toss, South Africa posted more than 350 thanks to the centuries from Ryan Rickelton and Kyle Verreynne. The former played well along with Bavuma but it was Kyle Verreynne's innings with the tail which made a whole lot of difference to the score. Sri Lanka had to grind hard to take wickets and the pace trio took 9 wickets together.
So, South Africa needed just over an hour to clean up the Lankan team. The pressure was on Sri Lanka from the morning. They were short of batters and the likes of Dhananjaya de Silva and Mendis were send back to hut in the space of 3 overs. After that, it was just a procession. South Africa win the series 2-0.

All set for action. South Africa are in a huddle near the fence. Dhananjaya de Silva and Kusal Mendis are out in the middle. Keshav Maharaj to bowl first.
South Africa on the other hand are one wicket away from creating havoc on the visitors' side. If they get the wicket of Dhananjaya de Silva and Kusal Mendis early in the session, they could wrap up this game pretty quickly but Sri Lanka have shown great determination and will not give away their wickets easily. Who do you think will win? Stay tuned.
Hello and welcome to the final day of this intriguing Test match. South Africa and Sri Lanka have gone toe to toe throughout this game, and we have arrived at the most pivotal phase of the game. Dhananjaya de Silva and Kusal Mendis restored the Lankan team's hope by posting a solid partnership and ending Day 4 on high. It is the last known batting pair Sri Lanka and they are still 143 runs away from levelling the series.
...DAY 5, SESSION 1...
The hosts on the other hand, know there’s there’s just the one wicket they need before they enter the bowlers. They did look a little tired towards the end of the day and probably some rest would work wonders. They though will hope to break this stand quickly on Day 5 which promises to be very exciting. Do join us for it. Till then, goodbye and take care.
The problem with Lanka in this innings was a few of their batters got off to starts but none went onto make it big and that’s what they need. They’ll hope one of these can do so and they’ll need that as there is not a lot of batting to come after this.
An excellent partnership between Dhananjaya and Mendis has kept their side in the game! Excellent fight shown by the two but there is still a long way to go. Sri Lanka still need another 143 runs so one has to say, the hosts are still ahead.

Dane Paterson To Dinesh Chandimal OUT!
OUT! PLUMB! Big shout and the finger goes up! Fuller one, on middle and leg, Chandimal looks to flick it but misses as it hits his pads. An appeal and the finger goes up. Chandimal refers. The only thing that can save him is missing the leg stump. Fair delivery and Ultra Edge shows no spike. Ball Tracking shows that it was clipping the leg pole and we will have to go with the umpires call. They retain their review but Chandimal's long stay at the crease comes to an end!

We are back for the final session of Day 4. The umpires and the players are out in the middle. Chandimal and Mathews to resume their innings. Kagiso Rabada to start with the ball. Let's go...
... DAY 4, SESSION 3 ...
End of an exciting session! It began with the South African tail having some fun and sorting some quick runs to push the lead to close to 350. Then in reply, Lanka lost a wicket early but Nissanka and Chandimal counter attacked. The partnership was going along nicely before Paterson struck. Chandimal and Mathews though have looked good so far but the two need to bat long. South Africa on the other hand, will want to continue to take wickets. The third session is an important one. Stay tuned for it.

Kagiso Rabada To Dimuth Karunaratne OUT!
Another appeal and the finger is raised again. Kaeunaratne seemed to be walking off but just at the end, reviews it. Looks out though. OUT! Three reds! That's a poor review. That seemed out! Length and on off. It lands and jags back in. Karunaratne looks to defend but misses and is hit on the front pad. Early wicket for South Africa.

On middle. Shorter. Karunaratne taps it towards point. Tentative call of yes, they go for it in the end. Luckily for the batters, the fielder misses his shy. It is a no ball too.
