South Africa look to move into the second place when they take on a struggling Bangladesh on Tuesday. This match at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday afternoon will see the Proteas start third with six points and Bangladesh sixth with two points. South Africa have three wins from their four matches this tournament. They defeated Sri Lanka, Australia and England – all coming very comprehensively. The only reverse they had was against the Netherlands where their batters failed for once. Other than that game, this tournament has seen the Proteas play to their strengths and post high scores. There have been five centuries from the Proteas batters in this tournament, with Quinton de Kock posting two. They could be gunning for another high-scoring performance with the bat which means there could be another century coming up in this match.

Bangladesh started the tournament with a six-wicket win over Afghanistan but went downhill since then. They had three successive losses right after, losing to England, New Zealand and India. The Tigers have struggled to post decent scores with their top-order caving way too easily. None of their batters are yet to score a century in this tournament, but they have seven fifties so far. Shakib Al Hasan may get back into the side after missing the match against India, which gives them hope of staying competitive. With the ball too, they have been all up and down, which all but rules out a surprise in this match.
