History for Bangladesh with 1st ODI series win in South Africa

Bangladesh clinched its first one-day series in South Africa with a convincing nine-wicket win in the deciding game on Wednesday. Bangladesh won the series 2-1 after bowling South Africa out for 154 and then providing an even more compelling batting performance to reach 156-1 in only 26.3 overs. Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal was 87 not out to see his team home and to history at SuperSport Park.

Fast bowler Taskin Ahmed put Bangladesh on course in the decider with his 5-35 to rip the heart out of South Africa's batting, where opener Janneman Malan top-scored for the home team with 39. Tamim and Litton Das (48) put on a 127-run opening stand that ensured Bangladesh would win. Das' exit just before his half-century made little difference and the experienced Shakib Al Hasan (18 not out) slapped a square cut for four off South Africa fast bowler Kagiso Rabada to se
