- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR22.3 he's dragged it on! Appeared to be a harmless delivery, slower through the air, dropped it short outside off, went back to play his favourite punch through cover, got an inside edge as it turned away, straight onto the stumps 107/220.4 stumped, Smith danced down the track, Mahmudullah bowled well there, held back the length, it turned away as Smith tried to reach for it, Mushfiqur took it way to his left and Smith had a chance to get his bat back in. But he didn't ground it and didn't react quickly enough, Mushfiqur took off the bails to catch him short 98/144.3 Kallis falls, short and it took forever to get to him, tried to smack it through extra cover off the back foot, was expecting it to turn away but it went straight on, instead of extra cover it went straight into the palms of Shakib Al Hasan, who took it on the second attempt 223/429.6 that's out, Duminy has faltered off what was a poor ball, it's a short ball down the leg side and was there for the taking, was trying to send it down the fine-leg boundary, it caught the glove and Mushfiqur made no mistake behind the stumps 141/347.3 Are South Africa slipping up here? Full toss and he chips it straight into the hands of Tamim at mid-off, three wickets for not many this Powerplay 249/646.4 bowled'im, kept low, came forward and then rocked back to a good length delivery, it didn't turn and he didn't really know what to do with it in the end, failed to get his bat down, got an underedge onto the pads and then onto the stumps 245/549.1 run-out, in the blockhole outside off, Peterson digs it out, Botha wants the single, Peterson sends him back, Rubel collects and throws down the stumps at his end to catch Botha short 273/749.4 bowled first ball, short of a good length on middel, tried to punch it past midwicket, missed, it clipped his pads and then crashed into the stumps, flurry of wickets at the death but also amid a flurry of boundaries 280/8Extras7 (lb 3, w 4)TOTAL284/8 (50 Overs, RR: 5.68)Did not bat: Imran TahirFall of wickets: 1-98 (Graeme Smith, 20.4 ov), 2-107 (Hashim Amla, 22.3 ov), 3-141 (Jean-Paul Duminy, 29.6 ov), 4-223 (Jacques Kallis, 44.3 ov), 5-245 (Morne van Wyk, 46.4 ov), 6-249 (Faf du Plessis, 47.3 ov), 7-273 (Johan Botha, 49.1 ov), 8-280 (Wayne Parnell, 49.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 Shout for a catch by the keeper They have gone for the udrs after the ump turned it down. It was the bouncer on the off stump line and Tamim was early in to the pull shot. There was a big noise - the bottom edge i reckon. Lets see what the third ump says; he says that's out. Harper reverses his decision. Tamim is back to the hut. 14/15.4 Clatter! What a way to go! he didn't offer a shot and heard the death knell. he is stunned. Lonwabo is delirious. It landed full in length outside off and cut back in. Kayes shouldered arms and surrendered his wicket. 15/26.6 Trapped! Looked Plumb. It landed full on a length around off and came in with the arm and hit him in front of the stumps. It would have hit the leg stump. Very tentative push from the batsman. He was neither forward nor back. He should have come forward to play that full delivery and then was beaten by the arm ball. He now goes for UDRS. OUT is the verdict 21/37.6 Lonwabo is taking out Bangladesh here. It was slightly slower, lands full on a length outside off and cuts in. Nafees played a very loose drive, away from the body, and gets the inside edge. 21/415.1 What a catch by the skipper! Lovely delivery, mind you. It was flighted on a length around off, lured rahim forward into a push-drive before it turned away to get the edge. The ball was well to the right of first slip and was dying when Smith lunged out to pouch it with his right hand. Supah 36/523.4 Edge and gone! Captain falls. It was slightly quicker and turns in from outside off stump, Shakib is cramped for the room there but decides to go through with the cut shot and gets a thick edge. Morne van wyk takes it on the rebound. The end is nigh. 61/721.3 Mahmudullah is run out quicker one around off, full in length, late cut to right of short third man where Botha makes a fine diving save. he searches for the ball, finds it, turns and fires a throw to the keeper who breaks the stumps. Great work from Botha. 58/627.6 Castled! The implosion is complete. A sorry end to their campaign . It was the quicker one that skidded on towards the middle, the batsman went for the cut shot but missed. They collapsed against West Indies, came back to pull off a thriller against England but have surrendered very meekly here. That's that. This is their lowest score against South Africa. Who will be the fall guy for this campaign? Jamie Siddons? Shakib's captaincy? The corridors of power are going to be abuzz in the days to come. 78/1023.6 Clatter! What is happening out there? The innings is in complete shambles. It was a flighted delivery on the leg stump line and Shafiul goes for a big slog sweep. Thin air. The leg stump is pegged back. 61/824.6 It's all ending very quickly. If you are a Bangladesh fan, way too quickly. some prefer it slow, Bangladesh have gone for a quick end. Razzak plays a slog sweep and finds the man at deep midwicket. Stunning implosion. 62/9Extras8 (lb 5, w 3)TOTAL78 all out (28 Overs, RR: 2.78)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Tamim Iqbal, 3.3 ov), 2-15 (Imrul Kayes, 5.4 ov), 3-21 (Zunaed Siddique, 6.6 ov), 4-21 (Shahriar Nafees, 7.6 ov), 5-36 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 15.1 ov), 6-58 (Mahmudullah, 21.3 ov), 7-61 (Shakib Al Hasan, 23.4 ov), 8-61 (Shafiul Islam, 23.6 ov), 9-62 (Abdur Razzak, 24.6 ov), 10-78 (Naeem Islam, 27.6 ov)

Match Coverage
All Match NewsSouth Africa made the ideal changes
Having already qualified for the quarter-finals, South Africa showed a killer instinct by bringing in two hungry fast bowlers and then brutally dictating Bangladesh's exit from the tournament
Everything was a weakness for Bangladesh
Shakib Al Hasan couldn't identify any specific areas of concern after the abject defeat to South Africa because today they struggled in all facets of the game

The great Bangla tragedy
Bangladesh's performance in Mirpur seemed to follow the script of a Shakespeare tragedy, with unfulfilled ambition, revenge and eventually the fall of would-be heroes
