Bangladesh restricted them to less than 200-run total with a good bowling performance all-around. They got off to a good start in this match but couldn't quite capitalize once the opening stand was broken. South Africa's spin twins Edie Leie and Phangiso both shared 3 wickets each along with the seamer Kyle Abbott who bagged 3 wickets too. So the Proteas clinch an easy victory and by winning both the T201 they have started their tour on a brighter note.

A clinical win for South Africa yet again. They did their home-work right from the start. Won the toss first, their openers got them off to a brilliant start and fortified them into a great position. The middle order was cheaply sent back, but towards the end Rossouw's handy cameo set a good total for the visitors.

OUT! All out. Crushed him all over. A perfect yorker summed it up for the visitors. Rahman gets an inside edge and the ball hits the stumps. South Africa win by 31 runs.

Wide! Rahman wanted to hook that one but misses as it was too high. A wide given up the umpire.

OUT! Bowled'em. What a delivery that was by Abbott. Fuller in length with a good seem position, angling in, Talukdar had no clue and the ball disturbed the furniture. They are 9 down now.

The ball strikes the batsman very low on the pads, they wanted a single, not taken.
