South Africa vs Sri Lanka 2024: Reddy Anna Match Prediction & Betting Tips

The second Test of the Sri Lanka tour of South Africa 2024 is set to begin on December 5 at St George's Park, Gqeberha. South Africa, buoyed by their commanding 233-run win in Durban, will look to sweep the series and strengthen their position in the World Test Championship (WTC) points table. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka will aim to salvage pride and end South Africa’s dominance at home. Here’s the Reddy Anna match prediction and betting tips for this crucial encounter.

Tournament Details:

Format: Test Venue: St George’s Park, Gqeberha, South Africa Date: December 5, 2024 Weather: 22.3°C, partly cloudy


Match Prediction Overview

South Africa’s confidence is sky-high following their historic victory in Durban. The hosts’ lethal pace attack, led by Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen, makes them favorites on the lively surface of St George's Park. While Sri Lanka boasts talented players like Kamindu Mendis and Lahiru Kumara, their inconsistent performances have left them vulnerable.

Reddy Anna Match Prediction:

South Africa to win and clinch the series 2-0.


South Africa Team Preview

South Africa’s camp is riding high on confidence after their emphatic win in Durban, their first against Sri Lanka at that venue. Temba Bavuma led from the front with vital contributions, while Marco Jansen’s sensational 11-wicket haul proved pivotal.

However, injuries to Coetzee and Mulder have forced the Proteas to explore new options. Rising star Kwena Maphaka may debut, while Dane Paterson or Senuran Muthusamy could be brought in to strengthen the lineup.

Sri Lanka Team Preview

Sri Lanka started the series with high hopes but collapsed in the first Test, registering their lowest-ever Test score of 42 in Durban. The bowlers, particularly Lahiru Kumara, showed promise with fiery spells, but the batting lineup failed to stand up to South Africa’s pace.

With the series on the line, Sri Lanka could bring in Sadeera Samarawickrama to strengthen their batting. Kamindu Mendis remains their key player, having been a standout performer in the WTC cycle.
