SA seal win in rain-affected game

South Africa sealed a comfortable win against hosts Sri Lanka in a seven-over-a-side game. Steyn and ABD played well for SA.

AB de Villiers quickfire 30 and Dale Steyn's two wickets powered South Africa to a 32-run win against Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka were never in the match after T Dilshan was run out without facing a ball. Dilshan Munaweera looked ill at ease and failed to score freely. Nobody in the Lankan line-up could play a knock like the one played by de Villiers which ultimately made the difference. South Africa have a lot of soul-searching to do. Levi and du Plessis failed once again, while their high catching in this game has been pathetic.
