South Africa, who are fresh from beating Zimbabwe by 10 wickets, have the strength of its fast bowlers and its otherwise aggressive team. However it suffers from an inexperienced middle order batting line. The South Africans will mainly be relying on Jacquis Kelly, the best all rounder that they have.
Sri Lanka too has tested batsmen like Dilshan and Sangakkara and Jayawardene. They may be testing the skills of their new opener Dilshan Munaweera to show his skills.
The opposing squads are as under:
Sri Lanka:
DPMD Jayawardene*, AD Mathews, LD Chandimal†, TM Dilshan, RMS Eranga, HMRKB Herath, KMDN Kulasekara, SL Malinga, BAW Mendis, BMAJ Mendis, EMDY Munaweera, MKPAD Perera, NLTC Perera, KC Sangakkara†, HDRL Thirimanne
