Currently, Bangladesh are facing South Africa in a two-match Test series against South Africa. After the end of the first game, Bangladesh are trailing the series by 1-0.

In the first Test, Bangladesh conceded a seven-wicket defeat against the Proteas.

Recapping the first Test, Kagiso Rabada entered the top five of South Africa’s all-time leading wicket-takers in international cricket with 536 scalps, achieving match figures of 9/72. He also became the sixth Proteas bowler to reach 300 Test wickets, achieving the milestone in record time by balls bowled.

Kyle Verreynne became only the third wicketkeeper to score a Test century in Asia, following AB de Villiers and Quinton de Kock.

Bangladesh’s Najmul Hossain Shanto won the toss and opted to field, but South Africa’s pacers and spinners dominated in favourable conditions, bowling Bangladesh out for just 106. Kagiso Rabada, Wiaan Mulder, and Keshav Maharaj each took three wickets, with Mahmudul Hasan Joy top-scoring for Bangladesh with 30 off 97 deliveries.

Bangladesh’s spinners mounted a fightback, with Taijul Islam and Mehidy Hasan sharing seven wickets between them. However, a gritty century from Kyle Verreynne supported by Wiaan Mulder and Dane Piedt helped South Africa amass a commanding 202-run lead, posting 308 runs in their innings.

South Africa’s bowlers seized control again in the third innings, with Rabada leading the attack as Bangladesh faltered to 112/6. Mehidy Hasan provided resistance, building crucial partnerships with the lower order to reach 307. Rabada ended with impressive figures of 6/46, his best in Asia.

Chasing 106 runs, South Africa’s batsmen completed the target with ease in the fourth innings, led by Tony de Zorzi’s 41 off 52 balls, with seven fours, and Tristan Stubbs’ unbeaten 30 off 37 balls, including four boundaries and a six, sealing a seven-wicket victory.
