Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bat against South Africa. After a 30-minute delay due to a wet outfield, Dinesh Chandimal chose to bat in cloudy Colombo at the R Premadasa Stadium.
Rain interrupted play again with the Sri Lankan score on 223 / 9 after 49.2 overs.
South Africa eventually came in to bat, with the game reduced to 29 overs and needing 176 to win.
From about 11 overs gone, South Africa started falling behind the par score in terms of a Duckworth / Lewis calculation and eventually the rain stopped play again after 21 overs, with the covers coming on.
All further play was called off and Sri Lanka was declared the winner by 17 runs.
Sri Lanka 223 / 9 (49.2 overs)
South Africa 104 / 5 (21 overs, target 122)

We are now not worth a watch, but wait i will because i am a sucker
Game is over, all further play called off.
Sri Lanka wins by 17 runs via the Duckworth /Lewis method of calculation.
Proteas 2 / ZIP down…
Don’t know why I bothered to watch this crock of shit!
Flok, Domingo… as coach I don’t know what you are doing!
