    This partnership has just calmed everything down, like a massage to the innings.

  2. SA 60-3

    Need 25 runs from 54 balls

    Five singles from the over.

    These two have steadied the ship for South Africa, time for them to get it done quickly now?

  3. Mahedi Hasan is going to bowl the first over after the drinks break.

  4. Here's how South Africa's third wicket fell.

  5. SA 55-3

    Target 85

    South Africa just edging themselves a little closer as they take another easy four runs from the over.

    Time for a drink that looks very well needed. There's a lot of sweating going on out there.

  6. And here's that dismissal.

  7. SA 50-3

    Target 85

    I won't hype too much about how nicely Bavuma is playing because when I said it about Quinton de Kock, he got out next ball.

    That is a brilliant shot. I've been willing South Africa to take a risk and put some pressure on Bangladesh and that shot does that.

  9. 6 runs

    SA 50-3

    Target 85

    Temba Bavuma is into his work nicely now as he smashes Nasum Ahmed over mid-wicket for the first six of South Africa's innings.

    No you wouldn't, you'd love it. God, we'd have some fun.

  11. Alex Hartley
    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    I'd hate to be stuck in one of those pens with you, Henry.

  12. SA 41-3

    Target 85

    Temba Bavuma drives gloriously for four much-needed runs.

    He blocks the last ball back to the bowler, who launches the ball a tad unnecessarily back at him. It nutmegs Bavuma to hit the stumps but he's stood firmly in his crease.

    A strange end to a stunning spell of bowling - Taskin finishes with 2-18.

  13. Here is the first of his wickets, getting rid of Reeza Hendricks in the first over.

    It is positive captaincy from Mahmudullah and that is what they have to do because they have to take wickets.

    Bangladesh have put pressure on South Africa and when the target is only 85 you think there won't be a game but you just sense there might be.

  15. Taskin Ahmed is going to bowl his final over as Bangladesh hunt more wickets.

  16. Ravi Bopara
    Former England all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special

    These two just need to take the sting out of the tail of Bangladesh.

    Bangladesh will feel they have a sniff of bowling South Africa out.

  17. SA 37-3

    Target 85

    Just four from another testing Shoriful over, three of them coming from a Temba Bavuma drive through the covers.

    Batting certainly isn't easy out there.

  18. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special

    The second game today is at the same venue and it must be on the same pitch because there wouldn't be time to move the cameras and ball-tracking.

    Good luck to Namibia facing Shaheen Shah Afridi on this.

  19. Ravi Bopara
    Former England all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special

    It looks like this wicket is getting tougher to bat on. I don't know if the balls from the first innings have created big indentations in the pitch and Bangladesh are exploiting that.

  20. SA 33-3

    Target 85

    Captain Temba Bavuma comes to the crease. South Africa are still favourites, but their focus has perhaps just shifted to simply winning the game as opposed to doing it as quickly as possible.
