It would be awesome for SL, and maybe exactly what SA needs to get rid of some dead weight.
Amla is done. Elgar is inconsistent. Markhram has potential. Needs more chances.

We all saw how "good" SL'S bowling was in the AUS test series. I can't believe they're on route in becoming the first asian team to win a test series in SA.
Not sure AB would lose his wicket to part timers like this. Anyway Lakmal Visws Rajitha combination is too good for SA. Pakistan bowling was not penetrative. They have more of ODI bowling unit than Test bowlingSL showing India and especially Pakistan how to play in SA, Pakistan should hang their heads in shame
Cmon SL!!!:
SRL has a wonderful chance to win this Test & Series - this is after losing their prime spinner for almost entire game. With that bowler, SRL probably would have chased around 125 here. Another great day coming tomorrow - Lankans need to end the day max 2 down.
SL has the right attitude. They don't try to block the balls. WHenever there is a loose ball they punish it. Many teams think hanging around will help them. That is the worst thing you do in SA. You just keep attacking. I remember when India had a fantastic chance to win a series in SA on day 4. They tinkered the batting stupidly. For some bizzarre reason Tendulkar was absolutely stuck not scoring anything against debutant Paul Harris the left arm spinner. Dravid was also stuck. India dramatically collapsed for no apparent reason. SA smartly promoted pollock up the order to get to the target as quickly as possible. His innings was handy. India missed a golden opportunity and ended up losing the highly winnable test. One session screw up was all needed.
Pakistan should learn from Sri Lanka. The team of south africa isn't what it used to be, but still Pakistan suffered like minions (no offence, i am myself pakistani but i hate what happened in that tour as if we were like banglandesh, getting out to short balls & no temperament in batting or application from batsmen as they threw it away).
Really surprised with performance of Sri Lanka. They will be able to carry this confidence in the world cup, while we won't be able to surpass first stage from the looks of it. I hope we can improve
South Africa dearly missing Pakistani collapses & 'determination' of our batsmen who give away their wickets at crucial moment when team is in need. Why is there no Azhar in SL who would choke and prolong it to make it more miserable for the team, like he did against NZ in UAE when we lost that test from comfortable position?
During Pak-SA series I said Oliviers returns are the best he'll ever have in his career,or at least until he plays Pak next
Dont worry. Any bowler who can pitch the ball short from a good height will be lethal for us on any track. We just love to fail repeatedly in a similar fashion, making sure to learn not a single iota.
Nothing to take away from Sirilanka, they performed really well. It's just sad when I see my team is in ruins and others perform well![]()
Less than 50 required, Sri Lanka cruising to a historical victory
If this was Pak, SA still had a chance
Wow. This is a bigger than what India did in Australia. And I'm an Indian.
