6.36pm: SA had a good platform, courtesy a 50-run opening partnership. But a middle-order meltdown and discipline from Sri Lanka in the middle overs threw a spanner in SA's chase of 115. SL wait for Manodara and then get into a huddle.
Chamari, SL captain and Man of the Match: My team did well. I am proud of my girls. I dedicate this to my father. He has helped me very much. It was a low score, but the bowlers and fielders did well. I am happy about my fifty. I know our bowlers had the potential. The wicket of Du Preez was good, it was a turning point I think. We have learnt a lot of things in the tournament. It is a positive.
Du Preez, SA captain: We had a good start and we lost it in the middle order. We have been struggling with it in the whole tournament. It was also poor execution from us. This is something we need to work on and come back stronger. We have a strong batting line-up, we knew we could chase down. But it did not happen.
DanielAlexander: "Impressive performance by Sri Lanka, well played. now for the boys to do the same "
Hypocaust: "Sri Lanka can go home satisfied with their performance in the tournament. That was just their sixth win in the last two years and 24 matches of T20I cricket. Third place would have been about the best they could realistically have hoped for coming into this group. On the flip side, SA would have been expecting a lot more off the back of recent form and reaching the semi-finals last time."
That is all we have for you from this match. Do swing over to the SA-SL men's clash. Cheers. Ta, ta!
