The South African bowlers put in quite an economical effort overall with Marizanne Kapp (2\/17) and Sun&eacute; Luus (2\/20) the most successful among them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chamari was the only Lankan who was able to tackle the South African bowling. The right-hander anchored the innings with a superb knock of 52 runs off 49 deliveries which contained five boundaries and a six.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Prasadani Weerakkody (15) and Eshani Lokusuriyage (12 n.o.) were the only other Lankans to reach double figures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The South African chase was off to a steady start with openers Dane van Niekerk (24 off 31) and Trisha Chetty (26 off 25) putting 50 runs on the board in nine overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But Dane&#39;s dismissal in the 10th over triggered a batting collapse and the South Africans could only manage 104\/7 in 20 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Left-arm pacer Udeshika Prabodhani (2\/13) and left-arm spinner Sugandika Kumari (2\/24) picked up a couple of wickets each while Chamari (1\/12) and Eshani Lokusuriyage (1\/16) were also quite economical.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Brief scores:<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sri Lanka: 114\/7 in 20 overs (Chamari Atapattu 52; Marizanne Kapp 2\/17), Sun&eacute; Luus 2\/20) vs South Africa 104\/7 in 20 overs (Trisha Chetty 26, Dane van Niekerk 24; Udeshika Prabodhani 2\/13, Sugandika Kumari 2\/24).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Agency.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
