OUT! Caught. Marco Jansen to Lahiru Kumara. Back of a length, wide outside off stump on the back foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to short mid wicket, caught by Rickelton. South Africa wins by 109 runs and wrap up a 2-0 series victory, and take a big step towards reaching the World Test Championship Final. Sri Lanka's top-order batters faced challenges with their batting, but Dhananjaya de Silva and Kusal Mendis stepped up, building a solid partnership to give them hope going into the final day. However the latter fell early in the morning and from that point South Africa were ruthless, taking the last five wickets for 33 runs to race to victory, Keshav Maharaj taking a five-wicket haul. Dane Paterson was named Player of the Match, while Temba Bavuma was awarded Player of the Series.
