It was a much improved performance from the Sri Lankan side in the second ODI but in the end, it was still in a losing cause. Such has been their level of cricket this whole tour that the South African selectors have decided to rest Jacques Kallis despite the absence of Hashim Amla (on paternity leave). 

It was a poor start for Sri Lanka (12/5 at SkyBet) yet again in the second ODI with a duck for captain T. Dilshan and a 28-ball three to Kumar Sangakkara (7/2 at BetFred). However, Upul Tharanga and Dinesh Chandimal saved the day for the tourists with superb half-centuries – the opener scored 66 while Chandimal remaining unbeaten on 92.

Knowing that the target was a tad below-par though, South Africa (4/9 at SportingBet) batted smartly to see off Lasith Malinga’s ten overs. They scored only 38 off them, but more importantly, gave away only one wicket – by which time, the game was already in their pockets.

JP Duminy (5/1 at Boylesports) was the star of the show for South Africa with his unbeaten 66 and he ensured the win by batting through. Amla ably supported him by following up his century with a half-century while everyone contributed to the cause. 

Sri Lanka will need much more from their captain Dilshan, who has looked a pale shadow of himself this tour. Angelo Mathews is another who has struggled and probably needs a promotion up the order.

South Africa will go into the game with Alviro Petersen and Colin Ingram to replace Amla and Kallis. One of the pace bowlers, Dale Steyn or Morne Morkel, could also be rested from this game. 

The South Africa v Sri Lanka 3rd ODI at Bloemfontein will begin at 12.30 pm GMT on January 17.
