SA vs BAN Match Preview
Bangladesh’s lengthy tour of South Africa begins on Friday with the first One-Day International (ODI) at SuperSport Park in Centurion. Last month, Bangladesh welcomed Afghanistan for a three-match ODI and two-match T20I series. They won the ODI series 2-1 but lost the T20I series when Afghanistan won the second match.
Last month, South Africa visited New Zealand for a two-match Test series. They were defeated by an innings and 276 runs in the first Test. However, the Proteas bounced back in the second Test, winning by 198 runs. South Africa may play aggressively against Bangladesh in this game, but Bangladesh may also be able to put up a decent fight.

SA vs BAN Must Picks & Player Stats
Shakib Al Hasan had a quiet performance in the limited-overs series against Afghanistan. He only scored 60 runs and took five wickets in three matches. The former Bangladesh captain is renowned for his all-round abilities and is widely regarded as one of the finest players in modern cricket.
Rassie van der Dussen batted for two half-centuries in the CSA One-Day Cup. He scored a half-century and a century in the three-match ODI series against India. He is a crucial contributor in South Africa’s middle order.
Kagiso Rabada will play his first One-Day International (ODI) this year. Rabada was named match winner in the second Test against New Zealand earlier this month. Rabada might be essential for South Africa, given his experience.
