After thrashing Sri Lanka in the 1st ODIs, hosts South Africa will look to carry the momentum in the 2nd ODI. For the visitor’s there’s a major concern regarding their opening pair and the lower-order. Their opening pair failed in the 1st game followed by lower order collapse. The World Cup is just around the corner and visitor’s would want to turn the fortunes when they take on the hosts in the 2nd game.
On the other hand, the hosts showed a powerful performance with bowling as they kept taking the wickets at regular intervals. Proteas are expected to make some changes keeping World Cup in mind. Their batting looks solid with skipper Faf du Plessis and Quinton de Kock are in good touch. The duo has performed consistently for the side.
