South Africa will take on Bangladesh in a Group 2 Super 12 match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SGC) on Thursday, October 27. The Proteas will be under a bit of pressure for no fault of their own as rain played spoilsport in their previous match against Zimbabwe with the team on the brink of victory. The bad news for Temba Bavuma and Co. is that the weather is likely to have a say in Thursday’s match as well.One cannot read too much into South Africa’s performance from the shortened game against Zimbabwe that was eventually called off. However, bowling remains their strength, with the likes of Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Lungi Ngidi and Wayne Parnell in the pace department, and Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi among the spinners. Quinton de Kock played a terrific knock against Zimbabwe, but Bavuma will continue to remain under the scanner.Bangladesh got off to a winning start against the Netherlands, although the margin of victory wasn’t big. Their batting struggled for most part and they needed Afif Hossain (38 off 27) to lift them to a decent total. The bowlers did a much better job, with Taskin Ahmed impressing with 4/25. They are not expected to have it easy against the Proteas, though.Today's SA vs BAN toss resultSouth Africa have won the toss and have opted to bat first. Speaking about the decision, their skipper Temba Bavuma said:“We feel it’s the best process for our side. The wicket looks a little drier and we have an extra spinner in our side.”T20 World Cup@T20WorldCupSouth Africa have won the toss and will bat first against Bangladesh at the SCG.#T20WorldCup | #SAvBAN | bit.ly/3W3RpO1111South Africa have won the toss and will bat first against Bangladesh at the SCG.#T20WorldCup | #SAvBAN | 📝 bit.ly/3W3RpO1 https://t.co/H8DZGbNxeMSouth Africa have made one change to their playing XI - Tabraiz Shamsi comes in for Lungi Ngidi.
