South African bowlers have put on a show with the ball in the ongoing second innings against Sri Lanka

South African bowlers have put on a show with the ball but have got equal support from the fielders as well. One of the efforts came from Kyle Verreynne to remove the premier Sri Lanka National Cricket Team batter Kamindu Mendis off the delivery from Keshav Maharaj.

Keshav Maharaj bowled a tossed-up ball outside off. The ball hit the footholes and spun back with a bounce as Kamindu Mendis prodded across defensively. He got a thick inside edge onto the pad, and then the ball lobbed up, and it seemed the ball would land safely.

However, Kyle Verreynne came up with the magical effort behind the stumps. He came up with the sharp catch to send the Sri Lanka National Cricket Team batter packing. He, along with the entire South Africa National Cricket Team, was chuffed to bits.
