Later on Jacques Kallis(69) and Faf du Plessis(52) too put up an excellent partnership of 82 runs for the fourth wicket. The lower order chipped in to get their team to this total. Bangladesh on the other hand were not good with the ball from the start and were struggling to get the breakthrough. Their bowlers came back well to take wickets in the end.
South Africa continue with their winning ways! The bowling was terrific right from the start and the African team put good pressure on Bangladesh by taking wickets at regular intervals.
