SL vs SA Match Prediction Tips | Sri Lanka vs South Africa Who Will Win Today Match

Colombo, July 20 at 10:00 AM IST

After the first Test in Galle ended inside three days, South Africa look to regroup for the second and final Test against Sri Lanka at Colombo.

The touring South African side didn’t just get bowled out for 126 in the first innings, they batted worse in the second attempt, managing only 73. Their bowling was not much impressive either.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, had the perfect game at Galle. Dilruwan burst through the South African batting, with the help of Herath and Lakmal. On the batting front, Dimuth Karunaratne prospered with a Test century on his return. However, there was no other Sri Lankan to make a notable contribution with the bat.

Like Galle, Colombo is a spinner’s paradise. Sure, they will come into play here as well.

Last Test result at the venue: India 622/9d beat Sri Lanka 183 & 386 – Aug 3-6 2017
