Relive a memorable South Africa vs Sri Lanka semi-final from the Wills International Cup 1998, played at Dhaka on October 30, 1998. Rain and drizzle disrupted the match from the beginning, with a two-hour delay reducing the game to 39 overs per side. Further rain later reduced Sri Lanka's innings by another five overs, leaving them with a revised target of 224 runs from 34 overs under the Duckworth-Lewis method. Despite difficult conditions, Jacques Kallis produced a magnificent batting performance, smashing 113 runs from just 100 balls, including five sixes. His outstanding century gave South Africa the platform they needed to post a commanding total. Sri Lanka struggled throughout their chase, losing wickets regularly and never getting close to the revised target. South Africa eventually completed a comprehensive 92-run victory to book their place in the final. Watch this classic 1990s ODI as Jacques Kallis' brilliant century helps South Africa overcome difficult rain-affected conditions and reach the tournament final.
