Series Opener: Close Game?

Sri Lanka
It seems as if Sri Lanka are going to have a temperamental day; they will be pro-active at times, but then completely dull in taking necessary action. This will reflect most in their bowling and fielding whereas batting will be more stable.

The Captain – Dinesh Chandimal
23 year old Chandimal has been given a big responsibility of Captaining the side and will fulfil his responsibilities to a great extent but he will falter by not anticipating well enough, hence some situations will surprise him; making his decisions inconsistent and reactive. He will receive good team support.

South Africa
South Africa too may not appear to be the most stable or consistent, but they will peak at the right times. They will need to apply themselves better with the bat, but collectively as a team they will do what is required. Although bowling and fielding will be strong, but there will be a middle-over patch of anxiety that will reveal their weaknesses.

The Captain – AB de Villiers
Confident and balanced, AB de Villiers will sensibly guide his team through a structured game plan. He will find himself having to fight this one to the end.

Tarot Advantage:
South Africa
