The Proteas (South Africa) have set a big score of 206 runs(target) vs The Tigers (Bangladesh) in their Super 12 stage fixture at the SCG in Sydney, on Thursday, 27 October.
South Africa raced to 205 for five in 20 overs, courtesy of a century by Rilee Rossouw. Rossouw smacked 109 runs off 56 balls, packed with seven fours and eight sixes. Meanwhile, Quinton de Kock hammered 63 runs off 38 balls. On the other hand, Shakib Al Hasan took two wickets for Bangladesh. Taskin Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud and Afif Hossain bagged a dismissal each.
It’s all over for Bangladesh as they fall out on 101 in 16.2 overs. Anrich Nortje once again comes with a back-of-length delivery and once again, the ball shapes back into the left-hander and Taskin doesn’t have any clue about it as he slams but the ball hits the stumps.
With that, disturbed bail, South Africa clinch a massive victory by 104 runs. Also, what an amazing spell from Nortje. Ends the day with a four-wicket haul, giving away just 10.
