ICC Champions Trophy 2009/10
South Africa
vs
Sri Lanka
Match Schedule:
Date: September 22th D/N
Time: 11: 30 (GMT)
Far from focusing on Sri Lanka's recent form, which has been good, Steyn was keen to highlight why he felt South Africa would beat them. "They've played well, but they haven't played in conditions like this. They haven't been in South Africa in a long time, some guys came here for the IPL but that was in the winter, when the ball wasn't doing a lot and it was 20/20 cricket.
"We'll see how they go about it, they've played on flat wickets in Sri Lanka and you watch them on TV and it's 360 (runs scored) plays and 340 and you think to yourself 'geez, these guys can play' and then they come here and you realise that a par score is 260, that's a 100 less, so will they be able to achieve that... I don't know. We'll do our video analysis, we'll focus on their weaknesses and try to cut off their strengths.
