Prediction Based on Performance
Based on the recent form and head to head record, South Africa is likely to be victorious in this match against Sri Lanka. The Proteas have been playing with a lot of confidence and composure as they are unbeaten in their last five matches. On the other hand, Sri Lanka failed to win even one match out of their last five games. Moreover, their batting lineup has been very inconsistent in the tournament. Thus, it is expected that South Africa will come out on top in this match and register their fourth consecutive win.
