| Scorecard: | South Africa v Bangladesh |
| Player: | Mohammad Ashraful |
| Event: | Bangladesh in South Africa 2008/09 |
DateLine: 5th November 2008
South africa start their series against Bangladesh with a T20 match in Wanderers, Johannesburg. South Africa would want to start the series in style keeping in mind the big season ahead.They would want to use this series as some sort of match practice going into the tough tour of Australia next month. Australia would be battle hardened after their tour of India and would be raring to go in the home season. Bangladesh would want to compete but they would find the South African quicks and the bouncy pitches alien and too hot handle.Ashraful will have to marshall his troops really well to make them compete as South africa is very hard to beat at home
