South Africa Top WTC Standings With Series Win Over Sri Lanka
World Test Championship: South Africa moved to the top of the World Test Championship (WTC) standings, damaging the Sanath Jayasuriya-coached side’s aspirations for qualifying for the WTC final with a 109-run victory over Sri Lanka at St George’s Park on Monday.
The win secured a dominant 2-0 series victory for the Proteas, who dethroned WTC table toppers Australia to claim the top spot. MeanwhSri Lanka are now fourth in the running for a spot in the final and will be playing Australia in a two-game Test series in January.
Sri Lanka entered this match with a point to prove, especially after a crushing 233-run defeat in the first Test in Durban, where they were bowled out for a record low of 42 in the first innings. After winning the toss, South Africa opted to bat first but found themselves in early trouble before captain Temba Bavuma and Ryan Rickelton steadied the ship with a vital 133-run partnership.
