Test 2024 Sri Lanka Tour of South Africa (2 Tests)

I know but his career conversation rate is more what I'm leaning towards.

It seems like a cheap shot but I'm on team Bavuma, I'm thrilled he's found some consistency the last couple of years.

No I know he’s done a terrible job over the duration of his career it’s bizarre how bad it’s been considering he’s obviously very good at concentration when he has to dig in.

If South Africa win this test, they go top of the WTC table. A loss for Sri Lanka means they can't make the WTC final.

Looks like we might actually get a 5th day with this one!

That seems to be a rarity these days, most tests finish within 4 days or even 3 days like the two other tests that finished today.

 

[Plugger35]

Sri Lanka chasing a target of 348, a tough run chase but not impossible with every innings in this test so far scoring over 300.

 

[Sea fog]

The run out of Stubbs was costly for SA.

 

[MJG14]

I tune in and see Joel Wilson get one wrong.

If Kamindu Mendis can get a ton this innings we'll know he's the real thing.

Yep, this is where they count most - successful 4th innings run chases...Although, a decent 'contribution' will do along with other Top 7

It needn't get as far down as Pasqual, they're only 1 down at present. And Pathum Nissanka also averaged above 60 in FC for the longest time, it's ~58 as it stands.

 

[Bedi]

that review was a big win to sri lanka

 

[Bedi]

Kamindu looking very good here

 

[yabsy]

He's timing it very nicely

5 down. going to be very hard now

 

[ioppolo]

If there was ever a time for a captain's knock from Dhananjaya...

btw 4000 up for Dhananjaya

SL need 143 runs to win on the final day with 5 in the shed. Should be a fascinating final session .

 

[Plugger35]

Sir Lanka looked done when they slumped to 122/5 but that partnership from Dhananjaya and Kusal has kept their hopes alive.

 

[MJG14]

It's going to be tough for Sri Lanka. One of those 30s from the top and middle order becoming a hundred instead would have been valuable.

 

[yabsy]

I think realistically for Sri Lanka to chase this down, this pair need to get the deficit below 60

[NYRB]

Would imagine if Sri Lanka are still batting by the time the new ball available, they will be close to winning this. But thats still a good 26 overs to go with a deficit still 140 runs away.

Verreynne behind the stumps is more annoying than Matthew Wade.

So far to start Day 5, its all been talk behind the stumps from him.

I think you have to give that one. Hands were under the ball.

SL batter wont be happy though.

 

[Plugger35]

The partnership broken just short of a hundred, tough now for Sri Lanka with the tailenders in and 129 runs still needed.
