The ongoing Test series between South Africa and Bangladesh is scheduled to resume on Tuesday, October 29 at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram. South Africa recorded a resounding victory to take a 1-0 lead in the series, while Bangladesh's maiden Test match at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur did not go as planned. Bangladesh batted first and scored a pitiful 106 runs in the opening innings. The Proteas responded with a score of 308 to grab a commanding lead.
After losing by seven wickets in their first meeting on October 21–24, the Bengal Tigers are still seeking their first Test victory over the Proteas. Bangladesh rallied with 307 runs in the second innings after a dismal performance in the first. Several of their players had outstanding individual performances with the ball and bat. Bangladesh will want to even the series by giving their opponents a harder fight in the second Test after suffering a crushing defeat in the first.
Mehdy Hasan Miraz tragically lost his batting innings at 97 runs, while Tajiul Islam got eight wickets in two innings to stop South Africa from winning the game easily. In the longest format, South Africa completely dominates Bangladesh, winning 13 of the 15 Test matches that the two nations have faced. In 2015, two games ended in draws.
