  • South Africa won by 83 runs  
           Graeme Smith thus notches up his first win as captain in only his
            second match, and a heartening one after a thumping loss to India
            yesterday.
           Bangladesh go down to their 34th successive one-day loss, a record
            that does not look like being nipped in the bud any time soon.
           Though they put up more of a fightback today than against India,
            lasting all but three balls of the innings, they never looked in
            the chase in pursuit of 295.
           South Africa set up the win early enough, with a sterling batting
            performance after choosing to bat first. Each of their top five
            batsmen got a good knock in.
           Their bowlers struggled initially as Ashraful and Habibul tonked
            the ball around freely. Some late-order fireworks from Khaled
            Mahmud notwithstanding, the batting was lacklustre through the
            rest of the innings
           So South Africa move into the second slot in the points tabel in
            this TVS Cup, behind India with their two wins.
           Bangladesh pick up one bonus point from this match, by virtue of
            preventing South Africa from getting it!
           Man of the Match: Mohammad Ashraful, for, in the words of the
            presenter, "taking the attack to the South Africans"
           The next game comes up on Wednesday, the 16th, when Bangladesh take
            on India, starting at 1:30 p.m. IST (8:00 a.m. GMT).
           Till then, goodbye
