After the weather stopped SA from getting the two points against Zimbabwe, they now have the urge to seal a win in today’s game. South Africa seems more prominent in these Australian conditions and will have a greater display against Bangladesh on Thursday. Bangladesh on the other side made a good start, winning the opener against the Netherlands and looking ready for the bigger game.

SA vs BAN – Fantasy Picks
Captain: R Rossouw
R Rossouw is a dasher at the top order. He will go with his positive intent without any hesitation.
Vice-captain: W Parnell
W Parnell’s release will fetch greater worth for SA. He can snag the key scalps with his left arm angle. With the batting, he will walk a little later in order. But once he is in, he can find the ball to the fence under the conditions.
Wicketkeeper: Q De Kock, L Das
Q De Kock is the pick of the most. Meanwhile, L Das is a batter with great touch currently.
Batters: R Rossouw, S Sarkar, N Hossain
S Sarkar and N Hossein will find the quicker ball more comfortable for their range of shots.
All-rounders: S Hasan, A Markram, W Parnell
S Hasan will be the key element for Bangladesh against teams like South Africa.
A Markram in the middle order will get an ideal situation to bat on this wicket.
Bowlers: K Rabada, L Ngidi, T Ahmed
K Rabada and L Ngidi are the speedsters who will make the pace speak along with the seam.
T Ahmed is enjoying the bowling in Australia. He can fetch crucial wickets.
