Sri Lanka will win the toss and will bat first.
Match Prediction:
Both teams have been in top form and have been winning matches in the shorter format of the game; players from both sides have the skills and armour to put up a tough challenge for the opponent. Sri Lanka team performance in the recent match remains very bad, New Zealand beaten Sri Lanka by 4-1 in ODI series. Sri Lanka will face difficulties in Australian bouncy pitches, So we predict that South Africa will win this match.
