Individual batting and bowling cards for this match are deliberately omitted: a scorecard fetch returned tables whose own figures were internally inconsistent (the listed batting scores summed to well under each team's stated total, and the bowling wickets didn't match the number of wickets that actually fell), indicating a garbled extraction rather than a genuine alternate account — rather than transcribe numbers that don't add up, only the independently-confirmed team totals, toss, result and Player of the Match are recorded. Kusal Perera's 61 off 40 balls and his Player-of-the-Match award are separately confirmed by a direct ESPNcricinfo match-report fetch (his half-century, described as "the second fastest half-century scored against South Africa," came up off 29 balls) — this corrects an earlier extraction that had swapped his innings with Kumar Sangakkara's in a batting table.
