After 18 overs,South Africa 118/6 ( David Miller 8 , Kagiso Rabada 0)
What an over by Hasaranga. He dismissed Markram on the last of his previous and began this over by dismissing Bavuma and Pretorius consecutively to complete his hat-trick. Just six from the over. SA still need 25 to win.
WICKET! Dwaine Pretorius c Rajapaksa b de Silva 0 (1)
It’s a hat-trick for Hasaranga. Pretorius plays his shot straight to the long-on fielder. Sri Lanka are on the top at the moment. SA 112/6. 31 still needed.
OUT! Temba Bavuma c Nissanka b de Silva 46 (46)
Big wicket for Sri Lanka. Set batter Bavuma departs after getting caught in the deep. He didn’t get enough behind his pull shot and Nissanka was brilliant with his jump to take the catch.
After 17 overs,South Africa 112/4 ( Temba Bavuma (C) 46 , David Miller 3)
Bavuma has struggled to find the boundaries but when Chameera bowled on his pads, he helped it on his way, over the square leg fence for a six. 10 from the over. 31 more needed.
What a shot! Fuller delivery from Chameera and Bavuma executes a wild swing perfectly to get a six over square leg.
After 16 overs,South Africa 102/4 ( Temba Bavuma (C) 37 , David Miller 3)
100 up for South Africa. They still need 41 more from the last four overs. Markram and Bavuma were building a dangerous-looking partnership but Hasaranga broke it with his googly cleaning up Markram. Miller is the new man in and has to play a blinder here as the required rate rises over 10.
OUT! Aiden Markram b de Silva 19 (20)
Hasaranga strikes to bring Sri Lanka back into the game. Markram falls to a googly. He moved across for an inside-out drive but the googly beat the bat to break the stumps. SA 96/4. 47 still needed.
Much-needed four for SA! In the slot by Hasaranga and Markram slog sweeps it to deep mid-wicket.
After 14 overs,South Africa 88/3 ( Temba Bavuma (C) 31 , Aiden Markram 14)
Boundaries can make a big difference. Bavuma got one at cow corner with a pull shot and with singles SA collected 10 runs from Theekshana’s over (13th). Lahiru Kumar bowled a very good 14th over to give away just four singles. The bowlers are applying the pressure by stopping the flow of runs. Required rate is above 9. SA need 55 more.
Good shot. Bavuma rocks back against a half-tracker and finds a boundary at deep mid-wicket.
