So South Africa not only win big, but also will be table toppers at least for a short while. They hold a huge net run rate at the moment - remember they couldn't make the semi-final last year just due to the NRR? - and might well have made up for the washout against Zimbabwe. Action shifts to India vs Netherlands, as we bid you goodbye from here! Take care.
Rillee Rossouw is the Player of the Match for his 109
S Sinha: "Bavuma did exactly the right thing in giving enough play to the spinners as well in this sort of a game to find the necessary rhythm under the conditions and get cracking for the matches ahead."
Niamatullah: "Rilee Rossouw beat Bangladesh by 8 runs."
5.38pm Bangladesh were never in the chase except for the first two overs, at which stage they were 26 without loss. The slide began in the next over, and Anrich Nortje completed what he had started, ending with 4 for 10. Shamsi too capitalised on the mountain of a score - courtesy Rossouw's career-best 109 - to get a confidence-boosting 3 for 20, as South Africa rolled Bangladesh over for less that half of what they had scored.

Nortje to Taskin Ahmed, OUT, the leg stump is disturbed! Once again he backed away early, and Nortje went on a back of a length. And once again, the ball shaped back into the left-hander. Taskin tried to slam that across the line, but was beaten, as South Africa clinch a massive win by 104 runs

Nortje to Taskin Ahmed, no run, and again. This went past the leg stump, as the batter made room, and Nortje went on a hard length to angle it in
He runs in, but backs out... To be reloaded

Nortje to Taskin Ahmed, no run, back of a length, and going on with the arm. Ends over the stumps and on leg side, as he swung and missed

Shamsi to Taskin Ahmed, 1 run, short and wide of off, and turning away. Hacked to deep point

Shamsi to Mustafizur Rahman, 1 run, falls in between cover running back and long-off running forward. Went launching at this good length ball wide of off, and ended up skying it

Shamsi to Mustafizur Rahman, SIX, woah, six over wide long-on! Fizz saw one full and loopy outside off, and went hoicking at that even as it hinted to turn away
