World Cup 2019: 5 key moments that helped Bangladesh win against South Africa

#4 Saifuddin’s breakthrough

There is a reason why Mashrafe thinks that Saifuddin is Bangladesh's best asset of the future. South Africa were never really out of the game until the very final overs. At one point, it looked like they would win the game when van der Dussen was at his vehement best.

However, Dussen was stopped against the run of play by Saifuddin. Bangladesh were struggling to get a breakthrough and the ball was thrown to the youngster, who got Dussen out off the very first delivery of his new spell. After that, things became easy.

#5 Great bowling display

It would be unfair to the rest of the bowlers if only Saifuddin is given credit as almost every other bowler did a great job. Shakib Al Hasan took the all-important wicket of Aiden Markram.

Mehidy Hasan Miraz, too, was brilliant as he clean bowled Faf du Plessis when he was looking extremely dangerous. Miraz was also very economical as he gave away only 44 runs in his 10 overs.

And what more can be said about Mustafizur Rahman? With regular breakthroughs, he helped the Tigers as he took the crucial wickets of David Miller, JP Duminy and Chris Morris.

Bangladesh will now have to continue this excellent teamwork and hope for the best in their upcoming matches.
