New captain. New team. Inexperienced top order. First assignment in an unknown territory, in one of the toughest places to tour. What do they do? Thump Sri Lanka in their own backyard, largely thanks to the greatest match winner in test cricket in the last decade, Dale Steyns 9-fer. Astute captaincy by Amla to have declared midway through the 4th day, when they were leading only by 370! Clinical rout this, with contributions from all! They win by 153 runs. Congrats Proteas.
