Sri Lanka won the toss & elected to bat first. K Perera (61) & A Mathews (43) were the main contributors in setting a commandable target of 166 for S.Africa. South Africa had their chances but in the end they have lost by 5 runs. The entire top order of South Africa played nicely and got starts, but nobody managed to convert that start into a big score. The team collapsed in the death overs by some extraordinary bowling by Sri Lankan bowlers.
