Kagiso Rabada to Avishka Fernando, OUT! RUN OUT! Good effort in the field by Anrich Nortje. He has found the first breakthrough. Rabada serves a length ball, on off. Avishka Fernando pulls it towards mid on. The batter takes off for a single. Anrich Nortje comes running in, collects the ball and he scores a direct hit at the non-striker's end. The umpire takes it upstairs to confirm. The replays roll in and show us that Fernando was well short of the crease. He has to walk back to the dressing room.

Keshav Maharaj to Bhanuka Rajapaksa, OUT! LBW! This is the first time Keshav Maharaj is captaining his side in a T20I game. He strikes on his very first delivery as a captain. Bhanuka Rajapaksa got two ducks in the ODI series and then he was left out of the final ODI game. He still continues to hunt for his form, as he gets dismissed on a duck yet again in this series. Floated and around off. The ball turns in off the pitch, Bhanuka Rajapaksa comes across and looks to flick it away but misses. He gets rapped on his back leg. Maharaj appeals and the umpire raises his finger in a flash. Bhanuka Rajapaksa decides to take it upstairs. The UltraEdge shows no bat is involved. The Ball Tracker shows it is umpire's call on ball hitting the wickets. Even, the review could not save him.

Tabraiz Shamsi to Charith Asalanka, OUT! TAKEN! Tabraiz Shamsi is pumped up! The dot balls were building and someone had to go for a big shot! A full ball, on middle, it lands and spins away from the left-hander. Charith Asalanka gets on his knee and goes for the slog sweep. He gets more elevation than distance. Ends up hitting it straight in the hands of Dwaine Pretorius who takes a good low catch at deep square leg. Sri Lanka in deep trouble now.

Tabraiz Shamsi to Dasun Shanaka, FOUR! Much needed! A full ball, on off. Dasun Shanaka steps down the track and looks to go downtown but ends up splicing it over covers. The long off fielder runs across and puts a dive but fails to flick it away from the ropes.

Bjorn Fortuin to Dasun Shanaka, OUT! TIMBER! South Africa strike every time a partnership goes on to build. Bjorn Fortuin steams and serves it full and angling on middle. This was very full and quicker. Dasun Shanaka is too late to get his bat down and the ball sneaks and disturbs the stumps.

Dwaine Pretorius to Dinesh Chandimal, DROPPED AND FOUR! A full-length ball, around middle and leg. Chandimal makes room and flicks it uppishly towards deep mid-wicket. Heinrich Klaasen misjudges the ball in the deep. The ball goes over him and into the boundary. This is the second time Dwaine Pretorius created an opportunity but the fielders made a mess of it both the times.

Dwaine Pretorius to Wanindu Hasaranga, OUT! CAUGHT! And finally, Dwaine Pretorius gets his first wicket. He serves a slower full-length ball, around off. Hasaranga looks to go big but this one proved to be a costly one. He lifts it towards long off. Reeza Hendricks was there in the deep, who made the catch look so easy.
