*** Official *** Sri Lanka in South Africa, Nov 27 to Dec 9 2024

We’ve all been here before. Only way is up!
We got bowled out for 45 by South Africa in a test there back in 2013 but we improved with 275 in the second dig thanks to a ton from Dean Brownlie.


Australia got bowled out for 47 by South Africa in a test there back in 2011.


Sri Lanka isn't the only touring team to get skittled for under 50 there.

And Pakistan for 49 a month after New Zealand.

The commentators can't work out why Mulder is out there either, maybe they told him he would be dropped if he didn't make a score in this innings.

At three too, late in the day, when he usually bats 7, and may be in less pain tomorrow after he rests it...
Maybe if he came out and swung the bat for a bit whilst the drugs were still working, before he spent the rest of the match in hospital......but he's not exactly doing that.

But SA were effectively 200-1 on a pitch doing a bit. Makes no sense....
