Had lost 3 wickets for 42 runs. Africa, then Rickleton took charge and Sri Lanka's WTC FINAL hopes were shattered

New Delhi. The South African team was under pressure against Sri Lanka after losing 3 wickets for just 44 runs. After an excellent start, Sri Lanka was thinking of bowling out the host team cheaply. But Ryan Rickleton had other intentions. 28-year-old Rickleton, who came to bat at number three, scored a brilliant century and brought his team from back foot to front foot. Thanks to Rickleton's century, South Africa has scored 255 runs for 5 wickets.

This is the second test of the two-match series between South Africa and Sri Lanka. The African team won the first test. Now his intention is to secure his place for the WTC final by winning the second test. If South Africa wins this match, then it will have to win only one of its next two Tests to play the final. On the other hand, if Sri Lanka loses this match, then its hopes of making the WTC final will suffer a big blow.
