Muddy waters for Sri Lanka in South Africa

Durban, Feb 12 (UNI) After heavy defeat in Australia and New Zealand, Sri Lanka will find it no easier when they take on the No.2-ranked South Africa in the first of two Tests, starting from Wednesday in Durban.
Sri Lanka's 2019 has begun with tough outings in challenging conditions against teams known for their fast-bowling strength, and their batting line-up, which has missed key players on occasion, hasn't been able to step up to the challenge.
A stonewalling effort from Angelo Mathews and Kusal Mendis helped begin the team's tour of the southern hemisphere well with a draw against New Zealand in the first Test in December. However, since that 274-run match-saving partnership in the second innings, the team have tapered off.
