RSA vs BAN 2nd Test Day 1 Highlights Today Result
In Test terms, there is still a gigantic gap between South Africa and Bangladesh, it is really worth to see that the South Africa’s first-choice attack injured. In South African conditions, the Cricket match for the team South Africa remains widened.
Probably the team Bangladesh has a good chance of transferring their home improvements to abroad but the team needs to be the concern for themselves little more. Bangladesh showed the best and worst of their batting in all match and the highest scores of the total by the team South Africa is earned as 320, which is highest for the team.
At the second innings for their lowest against South Africa the team collected the score of 90 was also the first time they have been dismissed for under 100 in a decade. If anything, they will want to set that right even though the Bloemfontein pitch can be considered as the challenging.
South Africa should not really wish to have its easy groundsmen around the country to buy into the idea that can give peace of mind to the team with its pace and bounce. Although they will be asked questions about the home line-up, which has battled for consistency in the last year, it is can be seen as worth match.
Kagiso Rabada will be playing his 22nd Test, is the most experienced bowler in the squad, with Wayne Parnell and Duanne Olivier only in control of nine caps between them.
Andile Phehlukwayo has played one Test and Dane Paterson, if he plays, in their debut match. The team South Africa wants to show dominance, in the series is also about finding the second wave of bowlers which can replace the previous bowlers and cricketers’.
Dale Steyn, Vernon Philander, and Morne Morkel may all be back at some stage but they are injured rate means South Africa need to start looking at other options and this series is the start of that search.
Team News:
South Africa: The home side’s quandary essentially boils down to these 3 players – Andile Phehlukwayo, Wayne Parnell and Dane Paterson – competing for two places. At the same time as Paterson is seen as the most potent of the three bowlers, this can bring some favor for his team.
The other two offer all-around options that will be given a better team balance. The likeliest scenario is that Phehlukwayo keeps his position, leaving a straight shootout in these 2 Parnell and Paterson.
Likely XI: Dean Elgar, Quinton de Kock (wk), Andile Phehlukwayo, Wayne Parnell/Dane Paterson, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, Aiden Markram, Hashim Amla, Temba Bavuma, Faf du Plessis (capt) and Duanne Olivier.
Bangladesh: The player Tamim Iqbal was the main figure of this Test following a recurrence because of his injury, Soumya Sarkar will come in to open the batting though he is now just reliving from his shoulder problem.
Mushfiqur Rahim said that it will be worth to see how his fast bowlers dealt with some not mentioned niggle ahead of confirming the attack.
Likely XI: Soumya Sarkar, Mahmudullah, Liton Das (wk), Sabbir Rahman, Mehedi Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman, Shafiul Islam, Imrul Kayes, Mominul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim (capt) and Taskin Ahmed.
