    Match Summary

    South Africa batted first and managed to post a modest total of 191 runs in their first innings. However, Marco Jansen’s stunning bowling spell dismantled Sri Lanka’s batting lineup, resulting in their historic low. The innings lasted only 13.5 overs with a run rate of 3.03, marking it as a forgettable moment in Sri Lanka’s cricket history.

    Moments of Sri Lanka’s Batting Collapse at 42 Runs:

    • Marco Jansen was the standout bowler, claiming a career-best 7 wickets for 13 runs in 6.5 overs.
    • No Sri Lankan batter could reach a double-digit score except Kamindu Mendis (13) and Lahiru Kumara (10 not out).
    • Four Sri Lankan players, including key batter Dinesh Chandimal, were dismissed for ducks.

    Sri Lanka’s score of 42 now surpasses their previous lowest score of 71 runs against Pakistan in 1994.
