De Kock century sets Proteas up for DLS win

DURBAN – Quinton de Kock continued his blazing run of sparkling form with his 14th career century to lay the foundation for a solid batting performance by the Proteas top and middle order in the third One-Day International at Kingsmead which ended in a 72-run victory for the hosts on Sunday.

When play finally resumed Sri Lanka were set a near impossible revised DLS target of 193 in 24 overs, requiring them to score 118 off the remaining 48 balls. What made matters even worse was that they had lost Kusal Perera with a hamstring injury while fielding. David Miller then continued the good work in partnerships of 44 with Van der Dussen, 53 with Dwaine Pretorius and finally an unbroken 47 off 20 balls with Andile Phehlukwayo of which the latter contributed 38 off 17 balls with five fours and a six.

Quinton de Kock hunts down elusive ton to help SA win ODI seriesJust days ago Quinton de Kock lamented not turning sturdy scores into centuries in recent innings, but he remedied the situation emphatically at Kingsmead on Sunday. De Kock’s 121 was the centrepiece of South Africa’s total of 331/5 in the third one-day international against Sri Lanka. Rain interrupted the visitors’ reply after 16 overs, when they were 75/2, and their target was revised to a steep 193 off 24. Go for the double. You can do it.
