3rd T20I: South Africa v Sri Lanka at Cape Town

5.45pm : South Africa won the toss and will bat.

AB de Villiers confirmed as playing. Hendricks and Paterson, his debut,

also get a game.

One change for Sri Lanka with Tharanga replacing Mathews

10 after 1

0.5 ST de Silva to Smuts, FOUR, that's a lovely piece of timing

0.4 ST de Silva to Smuts, FOUR, straight down the ground.

48 - 1 after 6 overs

whom would believe AB strike rate is 20 ?  :-[

133 - 4 after 16.4

AB 62*  SR 148 

16.4

Udana to Behardien, 1 run, OUT, excellent fielding in the deep..

Sri Lanka won by 5 wickets (with 1 ball remaining)

Unbelieveable !! ..

AB coming from injury top scored !

Dickwella wields a big stick and got te job done ! 

If Sri Lanka thought they had squandered chances, they may take solace in

South Africa's fielding performance. The hosts put down five catches in total  >

- with another sailing over Imran Tahir's head at third man -

Three in three balls in Wayne Parnell's second over.

The hat-trick

Three in Three balls in Wayne Parnell's second over :

First, Paterson grassed one at fine leg when de Silva got a top-edge off a pull

Mosehle could not hold on when Dickwella gloved a bouncer just over him.

Dickwella top-edged back to Parnell and he mistimed his jump in his follow through

and the ball went over his head instead of into his hand !
