Another test series defeat at the home soil for the Tigers. South Africa once again displayed a master class in the second and last test match of the two test match series. They complete a clean sweep with another commanding win against the Tigers. The Proteas were simply humiliated the Tigers with their clinical, ruthless, and unrelenting performance. They wrapped up the series 2-0 and continued their dominance in the red ball cricket.
Though the conditions were different what South Africa usually get at their home soil, not a fast and bouncy wicket, it was spin friendly, turning wicket. But they just adjusted with the hostile conditions swiftly and dominated throughout the series. Their batters batted sensibly, quick bowlers made early breakthroughs, spinners utilised the conditions very well. Their as usual sharp fielding and smart captaincy were ice on the cake.
On the other hands, Bangladeshi batters were simply clueless with their reckless batting except some sparks of resistance and occasional personal brilliance in patches. But the most important thing was missing- consistency. The Tigers will take this as another lesson in their struggling Test cricket journey.
The South Africa National Cricket Team vs Bangladesh National Cricket Team Match Scorecard reflects this overwhelming dominance by the hosts. From session one till the last wicket, South Africa maintained complete control and showed exactly why they are one of the most respected Test-playing nations.

South Africa 1st Innings
After winning couple of Test matches against Pakistan in Pakistan, Bangladesh was hoping to continue their winning streak. But they have been humbled and white-washed in familiar home conditions by formidable South Africa. The Proteas (South Africa) was proved a tough nut to crack and just simply outclassed Bangladesh with bat and ball in Both Test matches. Specially in this match Bangladesh was humiliated by South Africa by an innings defeat what is South Africa’s the biggest victory margin in Test cricket and on the other hand, this is the second worst outcome for Bangladesh in Test cricket.
After winning the toss the Proteas skipper made the right call to bat first and made feast of run scoring. The skipper Aiden Markram along with his opening partner Tony de Zorzi gave South Africa a solid start and added sixty-nine runs on the board just before Taijul Islam removed the South African Skipper in the first session of day one. Then Tony de Zorzi was joined by Tristan Stubbs, and they have made a double century partnership (201 runs) and gave Bangladeshi bowlers a wicketless second session. By utilising this batting paradise Tony de Zorzi made a wonderful hundred and Tristan Stubbs also achieved the milestone and made the Bangladeshi bowler’s life miserable. After scoring a brilliant century Tristan Stubbs were cleaned up by Taijul Islam in the third session of day one. After that David Bedingham joined Tony de Zorzi and made sure no more hiccups at the end of day one. South Africa ended the day one by adding 342 runs on board and just only lost two wickets.
In the first session of day two, Tony de Zorzi and David Bedingham picked up their job where they have left on day one. They made a century partnership, just before Taijul Islam hit the timber again. First, he picked up David Bedingham who scored a quick half century and then he trapped Tony de Zorzi LBW after he posted a mammoth century (177) who just missed his well-deserved double century for 23 runs. Taijul Islam also got Kyle Verreynne’s wicket who didn’t bother the scorecard. Bangladeshi speed star Nahid Rana manage to remove Ryan Rickelton on 12. That was end of Bangladeshi bowler’s success story because Wiaan Mulder and Senuran Muthusamy joined the run feast party. They have added quick fire 152 runs on board in just 31 over partnership. In this process Senuran Muthusamy scored his first half century and Wiaan Mulder made his maiden century in Test cricket. South African skipper Aiden Markram declared the inning after Wiaan Mulder scored his century after filing a mammoth run on the board, 575/5.
Bangladesh skipper Nazmul Hossain Shanto has used six bowlers but only Taijul Islam was impressive by picking up another fifer, 5/198. And Nahid Rana managed to pick up a wicket, other bowlers couldn’t make any impact on South Africa’s Batter.
Bangladesh 1st Innings
After spending more than 144 overs on fielding, when Bangladeshi batters came to bat, they found that the batting friendly wicket of Chattogram Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium has turned into bowling minefield for them. They had to face just a few overs before the end of day two as South African skipper cleverly declared their first innings just an hour before the end of day two. His bowlers didn’t disappoint him by picking up four wickets in quick succession. Within seven overs Bangladesh lost four wickets, courtesy of some brilliant bowling of South African Bowlers and lose shot selection of Bangladeshi batters.
South African bowlers continued their impressive bowling performances on day three as well by picking up wickets on regular intervals. Only Mominul Haque was the lonely warrior and fought hard against them in this inning, by scoring more than half of the total Bangladeh first innings run (he scored 82 runs out of 159 runs). At some point Bangladesh was in deep trouble and the score was 48/8, then number 10 batter Taijul Islam joined Mominul Haque and together they added 103 runs partnership. Taijul Islam scored 30 runs, and he was second highest scorer of the innings after Mominul Haque. Apart from them no other batter couldn’t reach double figure. Mr. Extra was third highest scorer of the innings, as South African bowlers conceded 22 extra runs.
Kagiso Rabada was the best bowler of this innings, and he picked up a brilliant fifer for only 37 runs. He was well supported by Dane Paterson and Keshav Maharaj, both picked up braces each. Senuran Muthusamy also picked up the important of Mominul Haque.
Bangladesh was enforced follow on, a rare circumstance in test cricket now a days. It stated that how dominant were South African bowlers in the first innings of Bangladesh with the ball and they bowled out Bangladesh less than 160 without breaking any sweat.
Bangladesh 2nd Innings
Bangladeshi second innings was no different story than their first innings and kept losing wickets on regular intervals. They were falling like ‘House of Cards’, just one after another. None of their batter couldn’t score 40+ score, that tells you the how miserable were their batting performance in the second innings. Number 10 batter Hasan Mahmud was the highest scorer of the innings; he scored 38 runs of just 30 balls and hit four sixes to entertain the home crowd who were very disappointed by this terrible batting performance of the home team. The skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto was the second highest scorer of the innings, he scored 36 runs. The debutant wicketkeeper-batter Mahidul Islam Ankon scored 29 runs. Other batters cut very poor number, and just didn’t show any temperament that is vital for in this level of international cricket. The duo spinners of South Africa were main hunters in this Bangladeshi innings. Keshav Maharaj utilised the spin friendly condition very well and picked up a fifer for 59 runs. He was well supported by his partner in crime Senuran Muthusamy by picking up four Fer for 45 runs. Dane Paterson managed to pick up a wicket as well. Their combined efforts helped to win the match easily and South Africa won the match by an innings and 273 runs.

Key Moments & Tactical Analysis
Bangladesh lost the game in the first innings of South Africa and their own first innings. When South Africa put a huge scorecard on the board, Bangladesh just simply lost the momentum of the game. The main lacking was their bowler’s inability to take wickets on a regular basis, batter’s low temperament, and inability to read the match situation. Bangladeshi bowlers failed to break the partnerships in the right time when Tony de Zorzi and Tristan Stubbs were building a match defining partnership. They couldn’t break the partnership of Wiaan Mulder and Senuran Muthusamy partnership what just simply knocked them out from the game. And their batting was just simply reckless and there was no game sense from most of their batters except Mominul Haque in the first innings. There was no mentionable partnership in both innings of Bangladesh batting apart from Mominul Haque and Taijul Islam’s a hundred plus stand in the first innings. Bangladesh even couldn’t surface the sole innings of South African’s batter Tony de Zorzi’s run (177), even after batted twice in the game. That proves how poor was their batting performance in this game. Hence, they couldn’t avoid follow on and lost the game by humiliating innings margin.
