Tuesday, 7 July 2015


Bangladesh and South Africa will face off each other in the second match of their Twenty-20 (T20) international series on Tuesday afternoon. South Africa are leading the two-match series 1-0. The match is slated for a 1:00pm start at the Shere Bangla National Cricket Stadium at Mirpur. “We couldn't take opportunities that we created in the first game, so I hope it changes in the next game,” said Bangladesh captain Mashrafe bin Mortaza after a 52-run defeat by the tourists in the first game at the same venue. Legspinner Jubair Hossain, who was one of two players to go to training on Monday, could replace Sohag Gazi who went wicketless in his two overs spell in the first match.
