Pacers Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Taskin Ahmed spearheaded Bangladesh's attack, managing to restrict South Africa to a modest 113/6 in their T20 World Cup match on Monday.

In favourable bowling conditions, Tanzim (3/18) dismantled the Proteas' top order in partnership with Taskin (2/19). Mustafizur (0/18) also contributed significantly as Bangladesh showcased a united front, successfully countering formidable efforts from Heinrich Klaasen (46) and David Miller (29).
