THE PREDICTION

A batting collapse for South Africa saw them bowled out for 167 by Sri Lanka in their chase of 233 last time out and the expectation is that like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh will look to test the Proteas batters via spin. However, the Tigers have failed to post a score of over 175 in each of their three defeats so far in the tournament, whilst South Africa have past the same score on four occasions. The batting of South Africa is significantly stronger than that of Bangladesh and this will prove the catalyst for them to bounce back and conclude their tournament with victory in this one.
