Sadeera Samarawickrama (91*) then carried his bat throughout and along with Charith Asalanka (44) put the Netherlands under pressure.
Dhananjaya de Silva (30) chipped in the end as well and Sri Lanka completed a comfortable 5-wicket win. This was their first win of the ICC World Cup 2023. For the Netherlands, Aryan Dutt was the pick of the bowlers with his figures of 3/44.
Coming to the second game, South Africa were asked to bat first and they put on a great show with the bat. Reeza Hendricks (85) and Rassie van der Dussen (60 gave them a great start with the bat despite losing Quinton de Kock (4) early. Aiden Markram (42) chipped in as well but the real blitz came from Henrich Klaasen.
Klaasen (109) smashed a brutal century and was supported well by Marco Jansen (75*). They added 151 runs in quick time and made sure that they put the defending champions under pressure. The partnership powered South Africa to a total of 399 runs. For England, Reece Topley picked three wickets whereas Adil Rashid and Gus Atkinson also bagged two wickets each.
With the ball, South Africa pacers were all over the England batters. They bowled great lines and lengths and didn’t let the opposition settle. The defending champions were tottering at 68/6 with all the specialist batters back in the hut. Mark Wood (43*) and Gus Atkinson (35) entertained the crowd with their hitting.
