COLOMBO: As Sri Lank all set to take on South Africa in the second quarterfinal of World Cup, as Sri Lankan Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe warned the Angelo Mathews-led side to “keep an eye on Proteas skipper AB de Villiers” who has been in rampaging form in the tournament.
The PM had issued a warning massage for Lankan side to keep an eye of South African skipper De Villiers who is in tremendous form in World Cup.
Third-placed Sri Lanka will not have it easy against second-placed South Africa, from pool B, at the SCG on Wednesday.
“You can do it, keep an eye on De Villiers”.
Wickremesinghe said the islanders could beat South Africa if weaknesses are studied and strategies planned accordingly.
President Maithripala Sirisena also wished the team and said in his message that he was extremely thankful to Kumar Sangakkara for his excellent feats that have helped push Sri Lanka to international heights.
