On a length, around off. Iqbal defends this off the front foot the ball hits him high on the bat.

On a length, on middle. Das defends it towards the leg side. Good start by Rabada.

FOUR! This time drifting on the pads and Das takes full advantage of it. On middle and fuller. Das flicks it past square leg for a boundary.

Goes fuller outside off. Das looks to drive it away from his body but misses again.

Three in a row now! On a good length, outside off. Das looks to steer it towards third man but the ball beats the outside edge of his blade.

Beaten again! Back of a length, around off and Das looks to push at it again. The ball seams away again and beats him.

Bit of pace and bounce straightaway! A good-length delivery, outside off and it seams away with good bounce to beat the outside edge of Liton Das blade as he looks to push at it.

It is Kagiso Rabada who gets to operate with the second new ball.

In the air, for some time again but safe! On a length on middle. Iqbal looks to clip it towards the leg side but gets the inside edge onto his pads. The ball loops in the air but falls well short of square leg.

Goes slightly short again, around off. Das rides the bounce and steers it towards third man for a single. Not much movement with new ball so far for Ngidi.

Back of a length, around off. Das dabs it towards the off side.

Slightly shorter on off. Das is right behind it and defends it onto the turf.

Serves this on a length, on off. Das blocks it out.

A length delivery on middle. Iqbal works it uppishly and just short of Kyle Verreynne at square leg. He fires a off-target throw towards Quinton de Kock behind the stumps and the batters take a run off an overthrow. Iqbal is off the mark.

WIDE! Lungi Ngidi starts with a wayward delivery! It lands on a length and is down the leg side. Iqbal looks to clip it but misses. Bangladesh get their first run on the board from a wide.

Done with all the pre-match proceedings! The South African players are seen to be in a huddle before they take the field. Followed by Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das who walk out to bat for Bangladesh. All the players take the knee to show their support to the 'BLM' movement ,before we get going. Lungi Ngidi to start with the new ball. Here we go...

Well then, the South African players stride out to the middle sporting a pink jersey for this special occasion. Followed by the visiting side in their typical green one. Both the teams will get lined-up in the middle for their respective National Anthem. It will be Bangladesh's first followed by the hosts anthem.

Shaun Pollock is near the deck. He says it is a nice surface. It does not look as pretty as a Test surface. There is some moisture on the surface, but the roller operating at the halfway mark will only make the pitch flatter.

Temba Bavuma, the skipper of South Africa, says that they were not sure about what they wanted to do. He adds that they would like to bowl well now. He mentions that there is some green tinge and the new ball will be key and their are few cracks. He informs that their are some changes. Tells that they need to do well in all disciplines and picking early wickets is focus. Talking about short boundaries, he says that they need be aware of their plans and execute them better.

Tamim Iqbal, the Bangladesh skipper, is in for a chat. He says they will bat first. Says, the history of the ground has been such that the side batting first has managed to put a humongous total on the board. Mentions, it is the best position for their side. No players need any more motivation and says, the players just need to focus on applying themselves in the middle. Informs us that there are no changes to the side.

South Africa (Playing XI) - Janneman Malan, Quinton de Kock (WK) (In place of Aiden Markram), Temba Bavuma (C), Kyle Verreynne, Rassie van der Dussen, David Miller, Wayne Parnell (In place of Andile Phehlukwayo), Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, Lungi Ngidi, Tabraiz Shamsi (In place of Marco Jansen).

TOSS - The coin goes up and lands in favour of Bangladesh. They have elected to BAT first.

The hosts have a lot to improve given their bowling wasn't upto the mark. In home conditions, the pacers were quite average with Lungi Ngidi receiving a thumping. The abysmal performance continued with the bat as the top order faltered. Only some counterattack from Rassie van der Dussen and a blitz from David Miller saw them reach above 250 but they need to pull up their socks and get back in the series today. Can the visitors inflict more misery on the hosts and clinch a monumental away series win? Or will the hosts show what they are made of? We'll find out soon. Toss and team news in a bit.

The win in the first match of the series was set up by the Bangladeshi top order with 3 of the top five getting a 50 plus score and skipper Tamim Iqbal getting to 41 as well. With plenty runs on the board, Taskin Ahmed and Shoriful Islam ripped through the South African top order in the first Powerplay. It was then Mehidy Hasan who spun a web in the latter half to notch a memorable victory for the visitors. They will be all pumped up for this clash.

Hello and a warm welcome to the 2nd ODI between South Africa and Bangladesh at Johannesburg. It's a pink day at the Wanderers and South Africa will hope that it will bring change in fortunes for them. The 2nd match of a three-match series is always the most important one and it will be interesting to see as to which side can hold their nerves and get the win. For the hosts, it is a do-or-die game, whereas the Bangla Tigers will be looking to churn out another team performance to seal the series.

... MATCH DAY …
