Bangladesh's golden chance to create an upset against South Africa

Bangladesh have splendid opportunity to grab vital points from this match. Beaten by England, South Africa will be vulnerable though they appear far stronger on paper.
Batting is South Africa’s weak spot. Without A B de Villiers, the top order is wobbly. Amla, their best batsman after ABD, is looking a shadow of the great player he was a couple of seasons ago.
Bangladesh not only have the bowlers, especially in spin, to harry South Africa, but also free-stroking batsmen in Tamim, Mushfiqur, Mahmadullah and the all round skills of Sakib to pull off an upset.
If they have self-belief!
Key Players: de Kock, Rabada; Tamim, Sakib
