Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bowl first in their opening ICC Cricket World Cup match against South Africa at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Saturday.
The Proteas have a good record in World Cup matches against Sri Lanka, winning four of six games, including the last three.
Delhi is not a high-scoring venue; the pitches are usually slow and totals of 300 or more have only been achieved twice in ODIs.
