The opening game will be played at the Newlands in Cape Town. After securing a clean sweep of the ODI series, South Africa now look to the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka. The home side who were shockingly beaten in the Test series made a good comeback in the ODI series winning it 5-0. In what will be the last international outing for both the teams before the World Cup, Sri Lanka and South Africa would want to close the season on a high. Both teams have made quite a few changes to their T20I squads. With the World Cup in mind, Sri Lanka and South Africa are keen to give a lot of players some rest. Aiden Markram and Anrich Nortje receive their maiden call-ups to the T20I squad at the back of an impressive ODI series. Suranga Lakmal returns to the Sri Lanka squad after almost a year, he played his last T20I for the Lankans on March 2018.
Best economical pick – Anrich Nortje received his maiden call-up to the T20I squad at the back of a very impressive display in the ODI series. His performance was certainly noticed by the team management and may have deservedly booked his seat in the World Cup bus.
Top captains & vice captains – Player of the match in the final ODI, Aiden Markram has had an incredible week as he also received his maiden call-up to the T20I squad on Sunday. With momentum certainly on his side, Cricbattle owners can easily take advantage of this situation and get some vital points for your team in the South Africa vs Sri Lanka 1st T20I. Although Thisara Perera isn’t quite playing at his best level, he is still a very important member of the Sri Lankan team. He provides experience and stability to the middle-order and is a veteran of the sport. Perera on his day can be one of the best performers on the field and could be a game-changing pick for your SL vs SA 1st T20 Cricbattle fantasy team.
Smart pick – Coming into the team as a bowler, Isuru Udana has made quite a name for himself due to his batting chops. With two consecutive innings where he stood like a rock, Udana can certainly be candidate to bat for Sri Lanka higher up the order. He is in good form and is a smart pick for your Cricbattle fantasy team.
Cautions Pick – Kusal Mendis is one of the most talented players in the Sri Lankan team. However, he hasn’t been able to live up to his potential in this series tour far.
