Preview

The tour started on a rousing note for Bangladesh, winning their first-ever cricket match in South Africa in the first ODI, then they claimed the series 2-1 with a facile nine-wicket win in the?third ODI. But the tour became nightmarish with the start of the Test series.

Against a depleted South African side, Bangladesh entered the first match as equals but?ended up registering their second-lowest Test score of 53 in a fraught chase. All ten?wickets in Bangladesh's second innings were claimed by?spinners, and that left skipper Mominul Haque talking about "a?big crime." The visiting camp has other worries too.?

Umpiring was poor, and Haque also claimed that they were?subjected to sledging from their hosts. There was little joy for the tourists except Mahmudul Hasan Joy's 137 in the first innings. Now, the series has indeed became acrimonious. So, expect a fiery contest in Durban.

For the Proteas, it was all about executing the plans. Skipper Dean Elgar led from the front with a resolute 67 on the first morning, then Temba Bavuma responded with a 93. But the final say came from spinners Keshav Maharaj and Simon Harmer.
