Simon Harmer to Najmul Hossain Shanto
OUT! STUMPED! Another one bites the dust! This has been a terrific morning for South Africa! The spin-twins are doing the job for the Proteas and Bangladesh are on the brink of a Test match defeat! This was tossed up, around off and spinning away from the batter. Najmul Hossain Shanto gets forward to defend but he misses as the ball zips past his outside edge. Shanto also loses his balance in the process. Kyle Verreynne behind the sticks, collects the ball cleanly and whips the bails off. Shanto has no part of his back foot inside the crease and Bangladesh lose their eighth wicket.

Keshav Maharaj to Taskin Ahmed
An appeal for LBW but the umpire is unmoved! South Africa have sent it upstairs. Wickets missing on the Ball Tracker and Taskin Ahmed survives! This was floated, around middle and turning in late. Taskin Ahmed looks to defend but he misses and gets hit on his pad. South Africa appeal and opt for a review as the umpire says no. The Ball Tracker suggests that the ball would have spun way down leg.

Keshav Maharaj to Khaled Ahmed
OUT! TAKEN! This it turning out to be an extraordinary morning for South Africa! A horrow show for Bangladesh though! Maharaj bowls it slower and wider of off. Khaled Ahmed gets down on his knee and looks to heave it over the deep mid-wicket fence. He only manages a top edge though which goes high in the air towards the mid-wicket region. Lizaad Williams runs forward from mid on, settles under it and takes a good catch. South Africa are just 1 wicket away from going 1-0 up in the series.

Keshav Maharaj to Taskin Ahmed
OUT! CAUGHT! There it is! Keshav Maharaj gets his seventh wicket and ends Bangladesh's misery! What a performance this has been from Keshav Maharaj on his home ground! This time he comes 'round the wicket and serves a flatter ball, on a length, going on with the arm from middle. Taskin Ahmed stays back to block but the ball takes the outside edge of the bat and goes straight to Wiaan Mulder at first slip who takes a sitter. Bangladesh are bundled out for 53. South Africa win by 220 runs!
