Players from both sides take knee in support of the Black Lives Matter Movement. Lungi Ngidi to start with the ball for South Africa. Here we go...

Mark Boucher, the South African coach, says that it has been a successful season and it is also about how they finish. He mentions that it is an important series for them and they hope to do well. Tells that there is lot of depth in the side and with Nortje and Quinton de Kock missing in the first ODI, it is an opportunity for other guys. He says that it is not ideal to have full-strength side for the Test series but it is what it is.

Russell Domingo, the Bangladesh coach, says that the performance in New Zealand was one of the best he has been part of and that series gives them lot of confidence. He adds that Afghanistan series was a confidence booster too as they have some quality spinners in their lineup. He mentions that having Shakib Al Hasan gives them lot of balance and it is great to have him in the side. Tells that experience plays a big role and it is nice to have that.

Bangladesh (Playing XI) - Tamim Iqbal (C), Liton Das, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim (WK), Yasir Ali, Mahmudullah, Afif Hossain, Mehidy Hasan, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman.

South Africa (Playing XI) - Janneman Malan, Aiden Markram, Temba Bavuma (C), Rassie van der Dussen, Kyle Verreynne (WK), David Miller, Andile Phehlukwayo, Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, Marco Jansen, Lungi Ngidi.

TOSS - The coin goes up and lands in favour of South Africa. They have elected to BOWL first.

Both the sides head into this encounter in form. Bangladesh beat Afghanistan in their own backyard and South Africa recently whitewashed India, they too won at home. Both will want to keep the good work going. However, this is going to be a huge challenge for the visitors who are not such a great visiting side. However, they are an unpredictable team and can surely beat anyone on their day. South Africa on the other hand, will see this as an opportunity to take maximum Super League points and one won't bet against them to do so. Toss and teams in a bit.

With all the Test cricket going on, it is now time to shift focus on the ODI format. It is a three-match ODI series between South Africa and Bangladesh with the first being played in Centurion! Welcome to the coverage.

... MATCH DAY …
