SA vs SL Live Score, 2nd Test Day 4: South Africa eyes formidable lead against Sri Lanka; Bavuma, Stubbs at crease
Seamer Dane Paterson took a career-best 5-71 and Temba Bavuma was unbeaten on 48 as South Africa closed the third day of the second Test against Sri Lanka at 191 for three in its second innings on Saturday, a lead of 221 runs at St George’s Park.
Paterson helped bowl Sri Lanka out for 328 in its first innings as it lost seven wickets for 67 runs against the South African new ball attack that was led superbly by the 35-year-old seamer.
Captain Bavuma, who already has two half-centuries and a ton in three innings in the series, will resume on the fourth day with Tristan Stubbs (36 not out). The pair has put on a patient 82 for the fourth wicket to steadily build the home side’s lead.
It is a must-win game for both sides in their bid to reach next year’s World Test Championship (WTC) final at Lord’s.
The South Africa vs Sri Lanka second Test match will be streamed live on the Jio Cinema app and website. The live telecast of the match will be available on Sports 18 network .
