Bangladesh take on South Africa today

Bangladesh will take on South Africa in their second match of T20 World Cup's Super 12s at Sydney Cricket Ground today (Thursday).

The match starts at 9 AM Bangladesh time and will be aired live of Gazi TV and T Sports Channel.

Thanks to their fast bowling group, Bangladesh made a winning start in T20 World Cup, beating Netherlands by 9 runs in their first match in Hobart. It was their first win at the main round of the T20 World Cup since their victory against West Indies in the inaugural edition.

Bangladesh indeed were no match against South Africa in the previous seven games as they lost all of those matches without much resistance. Moreover since the last T20 World Cup in 2021, they failed to beat any top teams but still they oozed with confidence, largely due to South Africa's poor luck in the major tournament like World Cup.

Squad:
Bangladesh: Shakib Al Hasan (captain), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Afif Hossain, Mossadek Hossain, Liton Das, Yasir Ali, Nurul Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, Ebadot Hossain, Shoriful Islam, Hasan Mahmud, Najmul Hossain, Nasum Ahmed and Soumya Sarkar.

South Africa: Temba Bavuma (captain), Quinton de Kock, Heinrich Klaasen, Reeza Hendricks, Keshav Maharaj, Aiden Markram, David Miller, Lungi Ngidi, Anrich Nortje, Wayne Parnell, Kagiso Rabada, Rillee Rossouw, Tabraiz Shamsi, Tristan Stubbs, Marco Jansen.
