SA score 284 !



SA are 96/0, with Amla on 48 and Smith on 45.

A flying start by SA and we can hope for a massive total. It seems Dhaka is a batting paradise.

Now Amla is on 50 and SA are 98/0.

Smith danced down the wicket to Mahmudullah, the spinner, missed the ball and was smartly stumped and SA are 98/1. Now Kallis has joined the in form Amla.

Amla was out for 51, clean bowled by Abdul Razzak, the left arm spinner. BD is playing three spinners, Razzak, Shakib and Naeem Islam !

Now Kallis is on 49 and du Plessis has just hit a four, taking the score to 172/3.

Kallis is gone for 69, Van Wyk for 5 and now SA are 260/6. Three fours, two by Peterson and one by Botha and now SA are 273/6. One more over to go ! Now Botha is run out and SA are 273/7. Peterson lofts Rubel for four and SA are now 277/7! NOw Parnell is bowled and SA are 280/8! Tsotsobe hits four and SA finish at 284/8 !

The SA innings was built around half centuries by Amla, Du Plessis and Kallis. Peterson played a cameo, a blistering 22 not out off 9 balls, with four fours !
