Pollock all set for Sri Lanka

Shaun Pollock is set to join up with his country men in Sri Lanka on Thursday following the birth of his second child last Friday.

Pollock will arrive on the day the first Test starts, and will be available for the second Test that follows eight days later giving him enough time to acclamatise to the Sri Lankan weather conditions.

South Africa have started the tour well in having a good first two days against Sri Lanka A in Colombo.
