Wanindu Hasaranga is the star of Sri Lankan cricket currently. He will be the key with both bat as well as the ball. Watch out for Dushmantha Chameera.
South Africa's batting, at least on paper, is strong. Janneman Malan & Aiden Markram at the top, and Temba Bavuma & Rassie Van der Dussen in the middle make a solid top four.
The bowling will be the key to victory for South Africa. Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje are in good rhythm. Tabraiz Shamsi could prove to be the game-changer.
