Sri Lanka Tour of South Africa 2019

This is some resurgence from Sri Lanka and perhaps one of the best overseas win by an Asian team overseas. With the world cup coming shortly this can be such a booster for Sri Lanka cricket which has been nothing but hapless in the last few years or so.
 
Wow Sri Lanka - What a performance by these guys !! Superb

The ease with which they chased this down is ridiculous. I wonder if we would have managed to pull it off so easily

Nothing seems wrong with Sri Lanka handing a whitewash to SA on SA's soil, although many including me shouldn't have saw it coming...
What felt abnormal was the chase!
 
The Lankans are back to their regular routine of collapses. I just don't know when would they learn to get rid of those. They lost 2 wickets for 23 runs but actually did well taking the score to 99/2 but then a couple of wickets reduced them to 101/4. Then, again a good partnership between Kusal Mendis and Dhananjaya de Silva took them to 194/4 at the the collapses being regular as we kept going till the end of the innings for just 231 all out. The bowlers still made an early spark but 231 on that surface wasn't good enough. They were probably 50-60 runs short. Anyways I would expect them to do better as the series progresses
