Kagiso Rabada also had a lot to do with this comprehensive win, which was achieved with seventeen overs to spare, for his figures of 3/43 as South Africa bowled out Sri Lanka for 138 to take a 2-0 lead in the series.
This was another aggressive performance by the left hander, who was named the man of the match, and it was a follow up to his 81 off 72 in the first match in Johannesburg last weekend where captain Faf du Plessis scored a hundred as South Africa won by eight wickets. Other notable contributors to the scoreboard were Du Plessis , who went past 5000 ODI runs, Reeza Hendricks and David Miller .
The South African bowlers made light work of defending their score as they continued to impress as a unit by bowling Sri Lanka, who they failed dismally with the bat and their highest scorer Oshada Fernando only managed 31, for 138.
