Sri Lanka’s campaign for the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy began on a disastrous note, as the side simply capitulated against South Africa in a moderate run chase needing 300 runs as the target. Skipper Upul Tharanga gave his all with a valiant half-century but that was never going to be enough unless someone else from the side stood up with a decent show with the bat.
Earlier in the day, Hashim Amla made it a memorable outing with the 25th ODI ton of his career. It was a great knock filled with patience and class throughout. For Sri Lanka, things look extremely tough now and below, are the player ratings for the side against South Africa.
