Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das put on a 95-run partnership for the opening wicket and, thereby, set the tone for a big total. Tamim Iqbal (41 off 67) and Liton Das (50 off 67), however, couldn’t convert the start into a big score. Shakib Al Hasan then capitalized on that start as he played a valuable knock of 77 runs in 64 balls, a knock which was laced with 7 fours and 3 sixes.

He stitched a valuable 100-plus run partnership with Yasir Ali for the fourth wicket to leave South Africa in all sorts of trouble. Yasir Ali, who was playing only his fourth ODI, scored his maiden half-century.

He scored 50 off 44 balls, a knock which was laced with 4 fours and 2 sixes. Besides, the likes of Mahmudullah (25 off 17), Afif Hossain (17 off 13), and Mehidy Hasan (19 off 13) chipped in with valuable cameos to guide the team to a formidable score of 314 runs in the first innings.

South Africa bowling attack had a forgettable day at the office. Marco Jansen (2 for 57) and Keshav Maharaj (2 for 56) returned with impressive figures. However, the likes of Lungi Ngidi and Rabada would look to come back stronger in the next match.

In pursuit of the total, South Africa were restricted to 276 runs, thereby falling 38 runs short of the target. Kyle Verreynne (21 off 25) and Temba Bavuma (31 off 55) failed to convert the start into big scores. South Africa, at one stage, had lost 3 wickets for just 36 wickets.

Rassie van der Dussen (86 off 98) and David Miller (79 off 57) then came up with valuable knocks to keep Bangladesh on their toes. However, once they got out, wickets fell in quick succession and South Africa eventually lost an ODI against Bangladesh for the first time in South Africa.

The second ODI is slated to be played on 20th March 2022 at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. Bangladesh would be brimming with confidence but you expect South Africa to make a strong comeback.
