    South Africa Move To 2nd Place In WTC Standings With 233-run Win Over Sri Lanka

    World Test Championship: South Africa moved up to second place in the World Test Championship table, only behind India, after their emphatic 233 win over Sri Lanka at the Kingsmead Cricket Stadium on Saturday.

    The Proteas bowling attack, spearheaded by Marco Jansen, ripped through the Sri Lankan batting line-up in the second innings as they bundled their opponents for a mere score of 42. Jansen became the first left-arm seamer to take a ten-wicket haul for South Africa since their re-admission into cricket in 1991.

    After being put to bat in the first innings, the Proteas struggled to get going. As wickets fell one after another on end, skipper Temba Bavuma’s resilient 70 run knock propelled his side to 191/10.
