Toss

Since ten of the past fourteen ODIs at the Newlands have been won by the side batting first, there is a huge toss bias here and therefore the toss-winning team may not hesitate in electing to bat first. Betting on South Africa is strongly recommended if they happen to bat first in this match as they have won nine out of their last ten ODIs at this ground in which they have batted first.

South Africa Team News & Playing 11

Team News

David Miller has been ruled out of the series due to a finger injury and Farhaan Behardien will continue to play in his place. Wayne Parnell may have to wait a little longer for a game as the selectors are likely to retain fellow paceman Dwaine Pretorius who produced a brilliant spell in the last game.

Key Players

Although there are many big names in South Africa's batting lineup, all eyes will be on AB de Villiers who has two hundreds and as many fifties at the Newlands. And now that the hosts have already clinched the series, we predict the skipper to play more freely on Tuesday and rack up plenty of runs. Imran Tahir is likely to get a fair amount of assistance from the surface. The spinner is currently the leading wicket-taker in the series with seven wickets and he will be the biggest hurdle for the Sri Lankan batters.

Recent Form

South Africa are enjoying the 50-over format of the game at home. They are on a roll with a nine-match winning streak and seem to be unstoppable at the moment with the way they are going about their business. They have lost just five ODIs since last year.

Sri Lanka Team News & Playing 11

Team News

No changes are expected to take place in the Sri Lankan lineup for the fourth ODI and none of the players are reported to be injured at the moment.

Key Players

With Dinesh Chandimal struggling to get some runs under his belt, the onus will be on opening batsman Niroshan Dickwella and Kusal Mendis to make significant contributions. Dickwella made 74 in the last game and the team will have high hopes on him for this match. Suranga Lakmal and Lakshan Sandakan are the only bowlers in the side who have somewhat managed to trouble the South African batsmen. Both have taken a couple of wickets apiece in the series and we predict one of these two to do a decent job with the ball.

Recent Form

Sri Lanka have now lost three ODIs in a row and their batsmen are clearly struggling to cope with the South African conditions. Not even once have the team managed to bat out their full quota of 50 overs. And it's not just the batting, the bowlers too are having a hard time to contain the Proteas.

Sri Lanka Playing 11

  • N Dickwella, WU Tharanga (c), BKG Mendis, LD Chandimal (wk), DM de Silva, DAS Gunaratne, SS Pathirana, LD Madushanka, RAS Lakmal, CBRLS Kumara, PADLR Sandakan.

­South Africa vs Sri Lanka Head to Head

South Africa have now beaten Sri Lanka on five consecutive occasions and they last lost a game against the latter in July 2004 at Pallekele. The two teams have faced each other just once at the Newlands and the hosts won that match comfortably by a margin of 99 runs.

­South Africa vs Sri Lanka 4th ODI Betting Odds

All three games in this series so far have been one-sided affairs with South Africa dominating with both the bat and the ball. The home team have not allowed the visitors to put a foothold at any time during each of the three contests. So once again, South Africa will walk in as strong favorites when they take on a struggling Sri Lankan side at Cape Town on Tuesday. Betfair and bet365 have them at 1.11 and 1.10 respectively while Sri Lanka continue to remain distant outsiders at 9.6 with 1xbet and 8.00 with bet365.

­South Africa vs Sri Lanka 4th ODI Prediction

South Africa boast a phenomenal ODI record at the Newlands with a win percentage of 84. They have played a total of 32 matches here and have won 27 of them which includes 12 wins from their last 14. So the venue has clearly been a fortress for them and it is going to be a daunting task for Sri Lanka to even pose any kind of a challenge to the Proteas in this match. Sri Lanka have looked down and out since the start of the series and it is hard to see them getting anywhere close to a win in the matches to follow.

Final Verdict: Back South Africa to beat Sri Lanka in the fourth ODI at 1.11 with 1xbet and 1.10 with bet365.
