A rather easy win for South Africa but they were very rusty in the field.
A lot of work is to be done by Allan Donald with the bowlers struggling to find their lines and lengths. The fielding was very poor for a team that is known for their fielding powers.
Bangladesh has now lost both their opening games and now will have a bit to do in the remaining games.
Rahman feels the bowlers did not do a good job while the batsmen batted well against a powerful attack.
Amla gets the Man-of-the-Match and feels that they batted very well with Levi giving them the start they needed. "For a first match of the season I am happy with the bowlers but we did have a big score to play with".
We will be back tomorrow to bring you the Zimbabwe South Africa match.
Goodnight all
