SL have done much better than many thought they would after their shambolic tour of Australia

SA have problems with their top 3 too....Markram isn't fulfilling his potential, and is in desperate need of runs...Elgar hasnt had a big score for a while, and Amla is coming to the end of his career..

I agree Andy.
Mendis hurt his hand trying to take a low catch.
Not another injury?

Embul traps de Kock lbw for 55.
FAF du Plessis gets his half century!

Du Plessis 72 not out

Getting on for a fifty partnership here for the sixth wicket. No luck for the spinner and the new ball a long way off. 136 to win. Obviously, SL will lose, but SA must be a little anxious.

Sixty-five partnership. Of course, when one goes there'll be a clatter. But SL doing better than most of us thought.

Maharaj gets rid of Dhananjaya for 48.
Lakmal out first ball. Maharaj is on a hat trick!
Embul out to Olivier for four. Eight down.
Olivier only knows one way to bowl. Short, short and short again.
Maharaj gets his third wicket! Rajitha out for one.
Kusal Perera gets his century!
