Anrich Nortje Architects’ South Africa’s Gigantic Win Over Sri Lanka

On a sunny day, Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat first

The decision turned out to be a disaster as the Lankan Lions managed merely 3 fours and 3 sixes the entire innings, as the Proteas demolished the side ever since Ottniel Baartman took the first wicket of the day

Sri Lanka could not survive the wrath of Proteas pacers, and were bundled out for 77, which is now their lowest-ever score in T20I history. Anrich Nortje was the architect of their demolition, as he recorded personal-best figures of 4/7 in his 4 overs

However, it was not an easy chase for South Africa as they too, stumbled in their chase of 78 by losing 4 wickets inside 58 runs

The ever-reliable Heinrich Klassen maintained his calm and composure and did the needful to see South Africa through the target
