Welcome back. Both Tamim and Soumya failed in the last game. They can't afford to do so again. It is imperative for the hosts to get a good start. Kyle Abbott will steam in. A very unconventional fielding position with AB standing almost at a short third man but in a catching position
Bangladesh fought back brilliantly after the opening pair of de Kock and de Villiers added 95 runs. The duo started off in a positive fashion and kept going in the same way before QDK departed for 44. The hosts then picked up wickets at regular intervals and put the brakes on the scoring as well. Miller and Rossouw found the boundary a few times towards the end and took South Africa to an above par total. There is some uneven bounce in the wicket and that might be a huge factor. Can the hosts chase down this total? Join us back in a few minutes for the reply...

Mustafizur Rahman to Rossouw, FOUR, Rossouw finishes off in style. Goes deep in his crease, clears his front leg and since the ball is full he smashes it down the ground, both long-off and long-on can't get across as it is powerfully hit. South Africa end on 169. Bangladesh need to produce something special with the bat to get this score

A run-out chance gone abegging. Mash was slow to get across to collect the throw. He then makes his displeasure known suggesting he wanted the throw to come to him, rather than a direct attempt. Is Mash ever happy?
7.5 -

So that brings an end to our coverage of the T20I series. South Africa have done a Bangladesh on Bangladesh in alien conditions. The ODIs and the Tests will follow. Do catch us for that. There is the 'small matter' of the Ashes series starting tomorrow. Make sure you don't miss our coverage of that. The cricket caravan rumbles on. Until next time it is goodbye from all of us here. And as I say always - remember to sleep tight!
Faf calls his team to collect the trophy and pose for the photos. No-one is willing to come forward. Then reluctantly and lazily JP Duminy with a smile is the first to stride forward. The others join in and the Proteas pose as a team for the photos
Faf: "They were much better today when it comes to putting up a fight. In tough conditions we batted well in both the games and our bowling was fantastic as well. There was a banana on the outfield for Kyle Abbott (smiles) but he is a great fielder. It was extremely humid again today. At one stage looked at AB's face and thought it may explode due to the heat. We need to make sure we get used to the heat as we need to do it longer with the ODIs and Tests coming up. By beating Bangladesh in the T20Is we have made a statement of sorts. We have done really well in ODIs, we have got the squad for that. Bangladesh have done well in that format beating India. They have got momentum and we respect them in their conditions but we will prepare really well and when the ODIs come around make sure we play our best cricket."
Mashrafe Mortaza: "There are some positives we have to take it out. The bad part we have to learn from that. It wasn't our day. As a fielding group we didn't do well. After a good start we lost too many wickets. It is the lack of games in this format. We have been playing more of Tests and ODIs in the last eight months - but that is not an excuse. As a professional team we have to come and perform. With the ODIs coming up we need to come back. Hopefully we will play our best there."
Faf is the player of the series. He is beaming as he comes in to collect his cheque
Leie: "I'm very pleased. I will take that any day. Credit should go to the batters. The way Rilee and Miller finished at the end was very special. I thought I should keep it simple and hit the lengths. It was hard to grip the ball because of the humidity around. This is one environment where everyone wants to be in. I'm very lucky to be around such great players."
Eddie Leie is the Man of the Match on debut. He is certainly one to look out for in the future
Faf and AB share a word as they walk back and the team is all smiles. South Africa have every reason to be happy. Do stay tuned for the presentation ceremony
Earlier in the day, ABD and QDK got the visitors off to a superb start as the duo added 95 runs for the opening wicket. Though they lost a slew of wickets in the middle overs, late flourish from Miller and Rossouw ensured that they posted an above par total.
Another comprehensive win for the Proteas. They have sealed the T20I series 2-0. Soumya Sarkar got Bangladesh off to a blazing start, Tamim struggled but stuck it out for a while before Parnell sent him packing. However, the introduction of spin brought about the downfall of the hosts. Bangladesh were never in the game once they lost Sarkar and Shakib. Leie was excellent with his leg-breaks and was well supported by Phangiso and Abbott. The trio shared 9 wickets between them. A mention should be made of the South African fielding as well as they took some terrific catches.

Kyle Abbott to Rony Talukdar, THATS OUT!! Bowled!!
18.6 -
Parnell to A Sunny, no run, even QDK and Parnell are now fooling around. Low full toss down leg, Sunny flicks and misses, the ball brushes the pad and a great stop by QDK one-handed to his right. Suddenly he appeals for something. Parnell joins in too. The umpire suggests it came off the pad
