Twitter reacts to Sri Lanka's shambolic batting performance against South Africa at Chester-Le-Street

06/28/2019

All eyes were on Sri Lanka as they came up against a South African side with no confidence, in pursuit of a semi-final spot. However, things didn't go well for them as they lost their skipper in the very first ball, and as expected, Twitter didn't spare the Lankans for their dismal performance.

Their best in this World Cup so far!!

South Africa so erratic so far.

Some assistance in this track but the Proteas not consistent enough to take full advantage.#SAvSL #SLvSA #CWC19

A Poor batting performance by Sri Lanka today!!

Exactly 125 dot balls from over number 11 to 40.

Out of the 30 overs in the 2nd Powerplay, Sri Lanka fails to score in almost 21 overs.

After being 67 for 2 in 10 overs, Sri Lanka lost 5 wickets for 96 runs in 30 overs!

Hilarious!!🤣🤣

Dhananjaya de Silva is a true gentleman.

Gifting JP Duminy a departing present with a horrible shot.

Gentleman goals.#SLvSA #SAvSL #CWC19

Hope Sri Lankan come up with a strong response with the ball!

Rather than watching the pain #SAvSL thankfully there is Isidingo on other channels. Never been a soapie fan but should be more entertaining than watching the Proteas wilt

A Test innings in an ODI? Haha

Forget MS Dhoni's 28 off 52. Jeevan Mendis is batting on 4*(32). What's with the intent mate? Dhananjaya can't just score and save the team, he's not Thanos. At least learn to rotate the strike. Man, you got him. #SAvSL

No entertainment for fans tonight!!

It is automatically changed from batting to bowling pitch when Lankan batsman are batting!

Other way round when our bowlers are bowling !#MelLogic #SAvSL #CWC19

Sri Lankan batsmen not living up to the mark today!

Mathews making the Pitch Look tough and Mendis DDS Jeevan are there to follow him #SAvSL

Not an ideal start from Sri Lanka!

Poor, negative approach from SL’s middle order was compensated for by the bowlers last week. Don’t feel like they’re going to get lucky again today. #SAvSL #CWC19
