South Africa
The first match that comes to mind with regard to neutral venue matches is the World Cup semi-final contest in the 1999 World Cup match versus Australia. Embarrassingly enough, the match earned them the tag of ‘chokers.’
The Proteas got a solitary win Test matches at neutral venues and it was against Pakistan. In ODIs, they have fared decently apart from against Australia, to whom they have a win percentage of 35.29. They have taken a liking to Pakistan, overpowering them in 21 contests out of 28.
In T20’s, they have won 7 out of the 12 games against New Zealand and Pakistan. Nonetheless, they are still to open their account against Australia at neutral grounds.

Sri Lanka
Sri Lankan cricket was taken notice of after their 1996 World Cup triumph and were bound to lose matches after their entry among the big boys of cricket. Quite astonishingly, they have played some stupendous cricket and didn’t let the percentages drop significantly.
In Test cricket, they struggled to find their feet in the 7 games, winning just one of them. In the ODI format, they were far from rusty. Even after a late entry into world cricket, Sri Lanka has done exceedingly well.
Against New Zealand and South Africa, they average 42.86 and 44.44 which is commendable. In the T20 format they haven’t disappointed either. West Indies found it tough in overhauling them. Even T20 powerhouses in India and New Zealand bowed down helplessly to the Lankans.
