Bangladesh vs South Africa, 3rd ODI: Bangladesh won by 9 wkts (D/L method)

RSA tour of Bangladesh 2015



Bangladesh has won the third and final match of the 3-match ODI series against South Africa. The team has also won the ODI series with 2-1. Bangladesh team, which is not counted as very big in terms of International cricket, has shown some great performances, first against Pakistan, then India and now, against South Africa. Bangladesh has already won the 2nd ODI match and now, this one. South Africa looked really small in this game and performed bad both with ball and bat.

The match was reduced to 40 overs due to rain. Soumya Sarkar has been chosen the Man of the Match for his 90 runs of 75-balls.

South Africa won the toss and chose to bat first, but couldn't do much with the bat. They could only score 168 runs in 40 overs and lost 9 wickets. Jean-Paul Duminy (51) remained the highest scorer while David Miller (44) scored second highest for RSA.
