Series: South Africa tour of Sri Lanka, 2018 Venue: Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, Dambulla Date & Time: Aug 01, 02:30 PM LOCAL
Thisara Perera 19(20)
41.5
Lungi Ngidi to Perera, out Caught by de Kock!! Ngidi gets his third! Crucial one as well because Perera is capable of providing that big flourish at the end. It's the bouncer and Perera had to fetch it from outside off, manages just a top edge that goes straight up in the air. Easy for de Kock who ambles to his right to settle under the skier. Perera c de Kock b Lungi Ngidi 19(20) [4s-2]
41.4
Lungi Ngidi to Perera, no run, short of a length and Perera frees his arms on the cut, mistimed to backward point
41.3
Lungi Ngidi to Perera, no run, another mix up, not a new thing when Mathews is batting. This came off Perera's pads as he missed the flick and the ball went towards the off-side. The southpaw wanted the single, sent back
41.2
Lungi Ngidi to Mathews, 1 run, full once again, Mathews makes room and smacks it hard, straight to sweeper cover
39.4
Lungi Ngidi to Mathews, 1 run, dug in short, Mathews is cramped on the pull as he swivels. Gets it through backward square leg
39.2
Lungi Ngidi to Perera, 2 runs, banged in short, quicker pace and Perera uses it to pull it through mid-wicket
39.1
Lungi Ngidi to Perera, FOUR, sloppy from Mulder! Got across from sweeper cover to make the stop but timed the slide poorly to let it through him. Concedes a boundary. Was a shortish delivery outside off, Perera got the width to go for the cut through backward point. Should have been stopped, instead fetches Perera a boundary
38.6
Shamsi to Perera, 1 run, not all that full but Perera gets a good stride forward to ease this towards point. Quick single
38.5
Shamsi to Mathews, 1 run, turning in from a good length, on the pads and glanced to deep square leg
38.2
Shamsi to Mathews, 1 run, fuller around middle, wristed away towards long-on for a single
37.6
Phehlukwayo to Mathews, no run, angling in around middle, defended off the front foot
37.4
Phehlukwayo to Perera, FOUR, slapped away! First boundary for Perera who has been itching to get going. Short and wide, lays into the cut and beats the diving backward point fielder
37.3
Phehlukwayo to Mathews, 1 run, strays onto the pads, shorter length and Mathews rises on his toes to glance it to fine leg
36.6
Shamsi to Mathews, no run, persists with the fuller length, dug out towards short mid-wicket
36.1
Shamsi to Mathews, 1 run, slower and fuller around middle, wristed away down to long-on
35.4
Willem Mulder to Perera, no run, shortish and angling in from outside off, fended off the back foot to cover
35.3
Willem Mulder to Mathews, 1 run, 36th ODI fifty for Mathews! Composed knock under pressure, he needs to bat deep though for SL to get a par score. Gets to the milestone with a back foot punch to sweeper cover. Just a gentle raise of the bat, he knows that there is a lot still to be done
34.5
Shamsi to Perera, no run, ripper! Turn and extra bounce, Perera had no clue as this drifted into him and left him off the pitch. Definite bite for the spinners
34.4
Shamsi to Perera, no run, kept low! Shamsi is amused and has a wry smile. The skidder, shot through well below the knee as Perera tried the cut. Beaten
34.3
Shamsi to Perera, no run, drifting in from around middle, defended off the front foot
34.2
Shamsi to Mathews, 1 run, fuller and on the pads, worked away on the leg-side for a single
