17.0 - Rubel to du Plessis, FOUR, du Plessis advances down the track to make into a length delivery and lofts it over mid-off, who was inside the citcle, for a sumptuous boundary. Precise metre of timing from the batsman

5.2 - Mortaza to du Plessis, FOUR, full from Mortaza, du Plessis stands tall in the crease and drives it to the left of mid-on for a boundary

1.4 - Mortaza to Amla, FOUR, edged and four! Length delivery that shapes away and extracts some extra bounce off the pitch, Amla pokes at it away from his body, gets an outside edge and the ball splits the keeper and the fielder at slip, runs away to the fence in no time

1.1 - Mortaza to Amla, leg byes, FOUR, short of length delivery down the leg-side, Amla looks to glance it fine, he misses and the ball goes fine to the left of the keeper off the thigh pad, runs away to the fence in no time

46.0 - Mortaza to Behardien, out Caught by Nasir Hossain at deep mid wicket!! Bangladesh have taken the final wicket. This is now South Africa's lowest total against Bangladesh in ODIs. This was the slower short ball from Mortaza, Behardien rocks back and goes for the pull, Nasir at deep mid-wicket runs to his right and takes a good catch near the rope. Batting first, Bangladesh made 160 in the first ODI and South Africa have bettered their score by only 2 runs today. Behardien c Nasir Hossain b Mortaza 36(44) [4s-2 6s-1]

44.5 - Nasir Hossain to Kyle Abbott, out Lbw!! That was plumb in front. This one turns in sharply from just outside off, Abbott never expected it to turn this much as he comes forward to defend, he fails to lay bat on it and the ball hits him in line with off stump. There was a huge appeal and the umpire raised his finger in a flash. That would have gone on to hit the middle stump. Abbott doesn't even bother thinking about the review and walks back to the hut. Kyle Abbott lbw b Nasir Hossain 5(11) [4s-1]

41.0 - Mustafizur Rahman to Rabada, out Bowled!! Mustafizur picks his third wicket of the innings. This was the off-cutter from Mustafizur once again that was angling in on off and middle stump line, the ball gripped the surface as well. Rabada was looking to work it away, he closes the bat face early and misses it completely, the ball hits the thigh pad before cannoning into the top of middle stump. South Africa are eight down now. Rabada b Mustafizur Rahman 10(25) [4s-1]

35.3 - Rubel to C Morris, out Lbw!! Rubel comes on and picks up a wicket once again. This was a short of length delivery angling in on middle stump line, Morris was looking to work it through the on-side, the ball keeps slightly low as well. He fails to connect and the ball hits him on the knee-roll of the front pad. There was a huge appeal and the umpire raised his finger in a flash. This would have crashed into middle and leg. Morris didn't even go for the review, knowing that he was clearly out. C Morris lbw b Rubel 12(13) [4s-3]

31.5 - Mustafizur Rahman to Duminy, out Caught by S Rahman!! The off-cutter has done the trick and it's Mustafizur who sends Duminy back on his way. This was the off-cutter angling in from just outside off, Duminy goes for the drive and plays the shot early. The bottom hand came off as he made contact with the ball and he ends up spooning it to the left of short cover, who moves across and snaffles it. South Africa slip further. Duminy was fooled by the lack of pace there. Duminy c S Rahman b Mustafizur Rahman 13(21) [4s-1]

28.3 - Nasir Hossain to du Plessis, out Caught by Soumya Sarkar!! This is a big, big wicket for Bangladesh. du Plessis was looking in good touch and his wicket will definitely help them pull things back even further. This was pushed through on middle and leg, du Plessis gives the charge and looks to loft it over mid-wicket, he drags it a lot straighter and long-on runs forward to his right and takes the catch. du Plessis looks very disappointed as he walks back. du Plessis c Soumya Sarkar b Nasir Hossain 41(64) [4s-3]

23.5 - Mahmudullah to D Miller, out Caught by Mortaza!! South Africa are in deep trouble here as Miller goes. Once again he came down the track and Mahmudullah fired it on his pads, he looks to flick and ends up chipping it in the air, short mid-wicket dives forward and takes a good low catch. There was some confusion whether the catch was clean or not, but Mortaza caught it cleanly and Miller had to make the long walk back. D Miller c Mortaza b Mahmudullah 9(24)

18.1 - Nasir Hossain to Rossouw, out Bowled!! Nasir Hossain gets a crucial breakthrough for the hosts. Rossouw was looking to thwack this quicker delivery across the line through the on-side, misses it completely and his off-stump is pegged back. A loose shot from the batsman. Maybe he expected it to turn, but it just went straight on and crashes into off. Rossouw b Nasir Hossain 4(24)

12.1 - Rubel to Amla, out Bowled!! Rubel Hossain has got the big fish. This one was bowled on good length and nipped back off the seam from just outside off, Amla tries to work it through the on-side, misses it completely and his off-stump is uprooted. He was beaten for pace and movement off the seam. It was also bowled on a perfect length there and that enticed the shot from Amla. They also checked for the front foot no-ball, but Rubel was fine on that count. Amla b Rubel 22(37) [4s-3]

4.1 - Mustafizur Rahman to de Kock, out Caught by S Rahman!! Well the young Mustafizur has struck for Bangladesh with a vicious delivery. It was a back of a length delivery just outside off that climbed disconcertingly onto the left-hander, it hit the splice of the bat and lobbed up as de Kock looked to defend it off the back foot and Sabbir Rahman at backward point moved to his right and completed the catch. Just reward for some fine bowling by the youngster. de Kock c S Rahman b Mustafizur Rahman 2(9)

30.3 - Nasir Hossain to Behardien, no run, this was flatter and turns in on off stump line, Behardien was looking to work it away through the on-side, he misses and wears it on the pad. There was a loud lbw appeal and the umpire raised his finger after taking some time. Behardien though reviewed immediately and Hawk-Eye showed that the ball was going over the stumps. Behardien stays

25.2 - Mahmudullah to du Plessis, no run, turns in sharply from outside off, du Plessis was caught in the crease as he looks to force it through the off-side, he fails to lay bat on it and wears it on the back pad. The ball was going on to hit middle stump, but the first impact with the pad was umpire's call and du Plessis survives. This decision could have gone either way. Bangladesh lose their review though

26.1 - Kyle Abbott to Mahmudullah, FOUR, fifty for Mahmudullah! This was banged in short and at the batsman, Mahmudullah hooks it behind square on the leg-side, races away to the fence in a jiffy

26.0 - Tahir to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, back-to-back boundaries for Sarkar. This was a freebie from Tahir, full toss on the pads, Sarkar kneels down and sweeps it behind square on the leg-side, the ball hurries across the turf and crashes into the fence. That was a poor ball from Tahir and it got the treatment it deserved

25.5 - Tahir to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, uppish and four! This was tossed up outside off, Sarkar comes down the track and lofts it past a diving extra cover, who fails to get a hand on it. The ball runs away to the fence in no time

23.0 - Rabada to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, what a shot! This was banged in short and outside off, Sarkar goes on the back foot, swivels on the pull and sends it wide of the fielder at deep square leg, who runs to his right and puts in the dive, but the ball escapes past him

16.4 - Duminy to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, back-to-back fours for Sarkar, this was bowled quicker and on middle and leg, Sarkar advances and drills it to the right of mid-on, who dives across and gets a hand onto it, he can't prevent the ball from running away to the fence though

16.3 - Duminy to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, good shot! Sarkar advances down the track, gets to the pitch of this fullish delivery and lofts it straight over the bowler's head, runs away to the fence in no time

15.0 - Duminy to Mahmudullah, FOUR, tossed up outside off, Mahmudullah goes right across and tries to paddle it fine, he misses, the keeper missed and the slip too fails to stop the ball diving to his left, it runs away to the fence. The umpire though thought that there was some bat involved and he gives it as runs. Duminy was unhappy with that call and made his displeasure known to the umpire

14.2 - Duminy to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, shortish and outside off, Sarkar goes deep in the crease and cuts it through backward point, there was no protection in the deep and it runs away to the fence

14.0 - Tahir to Mahmudullah, FOUR, on the pads this time around, Mahmudullah kneels down and sweeps it through square leg, the fielder in the deep runs to his left but the ball was out of his reach

13.0 - C Morris to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, short delivery from Morris, Sarkar pulls this to the left of fine leg for yet another four. Morris has lost his radar completely. The fielder moved to his left, but it was far away from his reach

12.5 - C Morris to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, Geez! Morris has lost it. This one was a gift as it turns out to be a full toss, Sarkar just lofts it over extra cover for a boundary. The fielder in the deep runs to his left and puts in the dive, but the ball escapes past him

12.5 - C Morris to Soumya Sarkar, no ball, FOUR, fuller and straying down leg, Sarkar just flicks this one through mid-wicket. Abbott overstepped on that occasion and next ball will be a free-hit

11.0 - C Morris to Mahmudullah, FOUR, short and going down leg, Mahmudullah gets inside the line of the ball and just helps it through fine leg with a pull for another boundary. Wayward delivery and it deservedly got punished

8.4 - C Morris to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, from round the wicket Morris bowls it a fuller length, Sarkar lofts it over mid-on, he just about clears Amla, who was leaping and goes to the boundary boards

7.5 - Rabada to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, full and straying down leg, Sarkar flicks it to the left of short fine leg for a boundary. The ball trickles away to the fence

4.4 - Kyle Abbott to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, Sarkar goes back to this back of a length delivery and punches it through square of the wicket on the off-side for a boundary. The fielder in the deep puts in the dive, but to no avail

4.0 - Rabada to Mahmudullah, FOUR, full toss on the pads and it's been put away to the fence. Mahmudullah flicks it beautifully through backward square leg and gets off the mark with this boundary

27.4 - Tahir to Soumya Sarkar, SIX, Bangladesh level the series 1-1! This is only the second time that they have beaten South Africa in an ODI. This was tossed up around off, Sarkar kneels down and goes for the slog sweep, the fielder at deep mid-wicket runs back to try and take the catch. He gets both hands to it, but ends up parrying it on the ad-cushions and falls over in the process. The umpire signals a six and the crowd goes berserk

2.0 - Rabada to Litton Das, SIX, what a shot! This was banged in short and at the batsman, Das pulls it over fine leg, there was a fielder in the deep but the ball cleared him easily. First maximum of the innings for Bangladesh

26.2 - Kyle Abbott to Mahmudullah, out Caught by Amla!! Mahmudullah is gone, with Bangladesh just four runs away from winning the game. This was pitched up and angling in on off and middle, Mahmudullah comes across and chips it straight to Amla at short mid-wicket, who takes it with ease. The umpire's check for a front foot no-ball, but Abbott is fine on that count. Mahmudullah was unhappy with himself for not staying till the end. Mahmudullah c Amla b Kyle Abbott 50(64) [4s-6]

3.4 - Rabada to Litton Das, out Bowled!! Another wicket goes down and it's Rabada once again. This was pitched up and shapes away on off, Das was looking to slog it on the leg-side, he fails to connect with the shot and the ball uproots the off stump. Rabada is pumped up after taking that wicket and Bangladesh are in trouble here. Litton Das b Rabada 17(14) [4s-2 6s-1]

1.1 - Rabada to Tamim, out Bowled!! Ohh dear! Tamim has thrown it away. He comes charging down the track to this back of a length delivery, again goes hard at the ball and this time he gets an inside edge that crashes into the leg stump and takes it out of the ground. A dream start for Rabada once again, and Tamim looked very disappointed with himself. Tamim b Rabada 5(7) [4s-1]

21.2 - Tahir to Soumya Sarkar, 1 run, 100 of the partnership comes up with this single. This was bowled slower through the air, Sarkar comes across and clips this through backward square leg for a single

16.5 - Duminy to Soumya Sarkar, 2 runs, flatter outside off, Sarkar goes across and knocks it through backward point, good running ensures that they come back for the second. Brings up Sarkar's 3rd ODI fifty as well. This is also the fastest fifty by a Bangladeshi against South Africa
