*Official* South Africa in Bangladesh: Two Test Series, 21-25 Oct, 29 Oct-2 Nov 2024

Sri Lanka should take a test off SA in SA. They've got a great batting line-up and asitha is a class pacer.

Look at that! Maybe 1 or 2 more cheap wickets in the next match and Rabada could become the bowler with best S/R in almost 130 years. (Obviously Yadav's not gonna maintain his S/R)

To me he already does , he's played more matches than all the players above him combined

 

[Aritro]

I think it's good for the game when nations like South Africa who hardly play test cricket can get an away win against a team like Bangladesh, who will play 34 during this FTP cycle.

 

[Bahseph]

I, along with most other SA fans would love if we played as much Test Cricket as England for example. It is what it is though.

Bavuma out of second test as well

Sounds like Paterson and Muthusamy are playing.

 

[SeamUp]

Yup, in for Breetzke and Piedt.

 

[Bahseph]

Breetzke will get another go but you have to feel this is a blow to Piedt. Going at 5s in the last match probably dented some faith in him.

The pitch must be less spin friendly, BD have brought in a seamer too.

This pitch is normally absolutely road. I think WI once chased 350+ here in 4th innings. I am terrified for the bowlers here

Pity for Breetzke. But the team looks better balanced.

Liton Das missing a big blow for you guys

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

I dont like our formation at all. Should have played one extra bowler here. Gotta be long day for our bowlers here. Also Liton out with fever not helping I'd imagine. I dont know why we dont play Hridoy and Rishad in tests. Disappointing

Yeah and the new guy I've heard about few times but nothing of note. This is gonna be drubbing.

 

[sayon basak]

Nahid bowling at the imaginary 12th stump.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Bad positioning there by Ankon. This is what happens when you bring in rubbish players into the mix out of nowhere

Very nice stats this.

Could Mushfiq not keep? Also I'd have happily have had Nurul there. Who the **** is Ankon

I wonder what made the selectors to pick him and then team management to select him in playing XI. Both the keepers getting injured is unusual but we have Zakir who can keep and if required mushfiq could have done it for this test. Playing Ankon makes no sense.
