11:10 Local Time, 09:10 GMT, 14:40 IST: Sri Lanka were competitive for most part of the Test, but they'll look back and rue the dramatic collapse on the third morning, the main reason for loss here at Gqeberha. On an even-paced pitch, both teams put up a good show in the first innings. While Rickelton's hundred set-up the hosts on the first day, it was Kyle Verreynne hundred with the tail that really took them to a good score on the second. Pathum Nissanka made 89 in the reply and there were as many as three scores in the 40s in the middle-order, but things fell apart on the third morning as they lost five wickets in the first hour and a bit, ensuring that they ended up with a deficit of 30 runs. South Africa's second dig was more measured and almost everyone chipped in as they went past 300 once again. Set a record target at this venue, the visitors kept fighting, but they kept losing wickets in clusters and that meant they finished second best. This series loss all but ensures that their #WTC25 final hopes are shattered, but not so for the hosts who move to the top of the table with today's win.
