BAN VS SA: Full South Africa Inning highlight
Another day. Another massive score by South Africa at Wankhede. Heinrich Klaasen’s 90 and Quinton deKock’s 174 were the highlights of their 382 run total. Aiden Markram scored fifty, but it needed to be clearer amid all the chaos following his dismissal. When Markram was dismissed, Bangladesh was still in a good position. The ball had started well, with South Africa reduced to 36/2 in 8 overs.
De Kock and Markram had a big third-wicket partnership of 131, but the situation was still under control. De Kock and Klaasen changed all that when they got together. Chaos broke out when de Kock raised the hundred, and they joined their hands. Bangladesh was left in a state of confusion as both pace and spin vanished.
Hasan Mahmud eventually dismissed De Kock, Klaasen and Miller. But Miller did not let them off the hook with his quickfire cameo at the end. It must be noted that Bangladesh’s fielding was excellent despite the challenging conditions. The fielding by Bangladesh was excellent despite the difficult conditions. It’s a thumper again, but we saw the ball move under lights during the last match. Bangladesh is in for a tough challenge in 30.
