SA vs BAN: Hridoy-Litton’s Record 206-Run Stand Rescues Bangladesh After 22/3
SA vs BAN: On the first day of the first Test between South Africa and Bangladesh, Bangladesh scored 327 for 6. Towhid Hridoy scored a century of 137, while Liton Das remained unbeaten on 92. Kagiso Rabada took 5 wickets.
The first test match between South Africa and Bangladesh is currently underway at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. At the end of the day, Bangladesh was 327/6 after completing their first inning. It is the highest score made by Bangladesh against South Africa in the test cricket. Liton Das was still batting with 92 runs on the board.
Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bat first against South Africa in the test. But it was not a good beginning for the team. While Tanzid Hasan Tamim fought hard against the South African bowling attack at one end, Mahfizul Islam and Mominul Haque got out without making any runs. It looked like Bangladesh was recovering from their initial jolts but the next blow came for them as Nazmul Hossain Shanto got out for 12 runs on the score of 22.
After losing three quick wickets, Tanzid Hasan Tamim and Tauhid Hridoy steadied the innings. Batting sensibly, the two batsmen not only rescued the team from a difficult situation but also forged a crucial 99-run partnership for the fourth wicket in 152 balls.
