- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.6 And Taskin gets his man now! Bavuma looked jittery throughout the over, and finally Taskin coaxes the edge. This was another great length delivery shaping away outside off, and Bavuma just pokes tentatively at it, as he gets a feather through to the keeper. Cracking first over from Taskin. 2/114.3 taken at long-off! Bangladesh get a few minutes to breathe. de Kock kept going for the big ones - and why not, since not many overs are left, while nine wickets are - as he got a full ball on off. He cleared his front leg, and went launching at that, only to miscue it 165/218.3 taken at cover! Shakib again went wide of off to not give Rossouw the room, and the good length ball didn't do the batter much favours either. He went launching at that, but ended up ballooning it to cover to bring an end to a commanding innings 192/416.1 backs away, and finds deep midwicket! It was a shortish ball going on with the arm, and ending on middle and off. Stubbs had made room early and was already prepared to get into that ball, as he heaved that across the line. Litton at deep midwicket didn't have to move, as Stubbs' short stay came to an end 175/319.4 easy catch at long-off! Bangladesh apply the brakes, and how. Mahmud bowls a back-of-the-hand legcutter, even if it was in the hitting length. The ball was full on off, and Markram went lofting but only as far as long-off. South Africa being pushed back here 199/5Extras12 (lb 1, nb 4, w 2, pen 5)TOTAL205/5 (20 Overs, RR: 10.25)Fall of wickets: 1-2 (Temba Bavuma, 0.6 ov), 2-170 (Quinton de Kock, 14.3 ov), 3-180 (Tristan Stubbs, 16.1 ov), 4-197 (Rilee Rossouw, 18.3 ov), 5-204 (Aiden Markram, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.4 Cleans him up! And both openers have been sent packing. This was a 148kph length ball, arrowing in towards middle. Shanto looks to swipe across the line, but misses it completely. 27/22.1 And just like that Soumya is gone! This was full outside off, and he looks to swipe this across the line. Only manages a gentle under edge through to the keeper. Big loss this for Bangladesh, as he was looking in good nick. 26/113.4 good low catch by Stubbs at deep square leg! He had to dive forward with the sun beating down, and did well to keep his eyes on the ball. Litton went hard and flat at a slog sweep to this full ball on middle and off, but couldn't time that well 85/84.4 And Nortje has another! And it's the big one of Shakib. This was full on middle and Shakib looks to clip it onside, but is struck plumb on the front pad. Shakib thought about reviewing it, as it might have pitched outside leg. But in the end decides against it. 39/35.5 Chipped to mid-off! Another one bites the dust, as a bit of pace and extra bounce rushes Hossain, who is trying to pull this but only manages a gentle mishit to Parnell at mid-off. 47/49.4 Caught at deep long off! Mehidy came down the track and looked to pick this up straight, but gets the toe end of the bat as it goes high but not very far. Sun's in his eyes, but he holds on does Markram. 66/510.4 stumped! Mosaddek ran down the pitch, and missed the ball there. He stood leg side of the ball, and looked like going inside out over extra cover. The ball was a bit tossed up outside off, and almost zipped through. de Kock had a good few seconds to whip the bails off 71/611.6 finds fine leg! Nortje doesn't let the sun in his eyes distract him. Shamsi bowled a wrong 'un, pitching it on a good length on middle. It shaped to turn away, and Nurul threw his bat for a slog sweep. The boundary was big there, and he was caught just at the rope 76/716.3 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 101/1014.5 direct hit at the keeper's end from Rabada! Mahmud easily short of the crease, almost as if he had given up. Yes, it was a risky run which they attempted, as Taskin got a hard length ball on off, which he pushed to cover and set off. But he ran back late there with Rabada placed close in, and the latter had all three stumps to aim at 89/9Extras9 (b 4, lb 1, w 4)TOTAL101 all out (16.3 Overs, RR: 6.12)Fall of wickets: 1-26 (Soumya Sarkar, 2.1 ov), 2-27 (Najmul Hossain Shanto, 2.4 ov), 3-39 (Shakib Al Hasan, 4.4 ov), 4-47 (Afif Hossain, 5.5 ov), 5-66 (Mehidy Hasan Miraz, 9.4 ov), 6-71 (Mosaddek Hossain, 10.4 ov), 7-76 (Nurul Hasan, 11.6 ov), 8-85 (Litton Das, 13.4 ov), 9-89 (Hasan Mahmud, 14.5 ov), 10-101 (Taskin Ahmed, 16.3 ov)
