Rabada and Philander have wrecked the top order.

Highly unlikely. . Duminy will keep his place. Bavuma will make way for de Villiers barring injury and the second innings if there is one. .
Sri Lanka 131 all out. Destroyed by the pace quartet. Rabada and Philander with three wickets each. Oliver and parnell with two wickets each . All four pacers contributed. Rumours of the death of South African cricket have been greatly exaggerated.
Apologies to mark Twain.

Surprised Big Vern only has 158 Test wickets, given how long he's been around. He has the best average of any SA bowler to take 150 wickets. Never seems to have much ATG vibe, but he's in that kind of company. Maybe he needs to get up to 250 wickets.
