Who going to win South Africa vs Sri Lanka?
It is going to be a closely fought contest based on their past performances. South Africa has historically been the dominating host in the Test matches against Sri Lanka; nevertheless, Sri Lanka stunned South Africa in series by winning important ones which were for example 2-0 victory in 20192, one that one made history.
South Africa has been quite on the way upward, winning bread and butter in the away series of the West Indies and Bangladesh. Their seamers, led by Kagiso Rabada and Gerald Coetzee, are very strong.
Sri Lanka has been very good this year as they have done well to win in England and New Zealand. Kamindu Mendis has starred with five centuries and three fifties in just seven Tests this year.
No one can say for sure which way the contest will turn based on current performances and past records. However, if Sri Lanka can replicate the success of 2019 in this pitch, where pace should be an ally for them, it can place them firmly within the odds of winning another series.
