Dean Elgar calls on South Africa to whitewash Sri Lanka too after beating Pakistan 3-0

The Proteas wrapped up their three-match series as they beat the tourists by 107 runs, having bowled them out for the sixth time in the series

Stand-in South Africa captain Dean Elgar challenged his team to repeat the whitewash they inflicted on Pakistan when they play Sri Lanka.

The Proteas wrapped up their three-match series as they beat the tourists by 107 runs, having bowled them out for the sixth time in the series.

South Africa’s fast-bowling attack have been in rampant form, with Duanne Olivier taking 24 wickets at 14.70.

"We are very fortunate to have that arsenal of four fast bowlers," said Elgar.

"We know they are a good team. Three-nil is what we asked from the guys, and we have achieved that.

"We are halfway to our goals for the season. We want to achieve the same feat against Sri Lanka."

South Africa will take on Sri Lanka in a two-match Test series at home in February, and will be hoping for a repeat of the last time the two face when the South Africans won 3-0.
