South Africa have won the toss and opted to bowl first against Bangladesh as they hope to get their World Cup campaign back on track.
Captain Point of view:
Mashrafe Mortaza: We are confident, had a good preparation. South Africa losing that day doesn’t matter, it doesn’t really give us much. We have to play hard. It was a used wicket, and it really depends how we bat on this wicket. Tamim is playing. Everyone is fit to play. Our top XI are playing
Faf du Plessis: We’ll have a bowl. Playing an extra seamer today, and we would like to attack the Bangladeshis in the first 15 overs. We did really well to restrict the strong England line-up to 300ish, and we were one partnership away from a really close chase. (Hashim) Amla’s out, so (David) Miller comes back in.
Team:
South Africa (Playing XI): Quinton de Kock (wicketkeeper), Aiden Markram, Faf du Plessis (captain), Rassie van der Dussen, Jean-Paul Duminy, David Miller, Andile Phehlukwayo, Chris Morris, Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi, Imran Tahir
Bangladesh (Playing XI): Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim (wicketkeeper), Mohammad Mithun, Mahmudullah, Mosaddek Hossain, Mohammad Saifuddin, Mashrafe Mortaza (captain), Mehidy Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman
