Sri Lanka will take on South Africa today at the Riverside Stadium in the ICC World Cup-2019. To stay in the last-4 of the World Cup, Sri Lanka will have to win this match at all costs. Africa, on the other hand, would like to win the match to save itself from another shameful defeat in the WC.

The 1996 world champion currently remains seventh in the points table and has two wins and two matches that were cancelled due to rain. If she beats South Africa in this match, she will take two points and come fifth. But Sri Lanka should perform the same way it did against England.

More importantly, the team had easily saved the 233-run target against England and saw veteran Lasith Malinga's significant contribution to the win. Once again they will have great responsibility. On the other hand, the whole team will have to fight together for the African side.
