Preview:
South Africa will be up against Bangladesh in the 2nd ODI of the series on Sunday. It’s a must-win game for the hosts South Africa to level the series 1-1. They leaked a lot of runs at the death in the 1st ODI which made a lot of difference in losing the game. Fighting knocks from experienced Rassie van der Dussen and David Miller went in vain in the end. Bavuma and his boys will be eager to get back and change things pretty quickly at Wanderers.
Bangladesh on the other hand played as a group in the 1st ODI where each member contributed to the success and sealed the game by 38 runs. It’s a great opportunity for them to secure a series win on South African soil for the first time.
