South Africa are just struggling to find the gaps against the pace bowlers, as they take four singles and a leg bye off Mustafizur Rahman.
Surely that isn't going to last too long though?

This has to be one of the dullest Cricket World Cups. No close games and the inevitability that India will take the trophy home. I fear the 50-over World Cup has signed its own death warrant.

The pace does seem a little bit harder to get away than the spin. Shoriful Islam gets through another over without conceding a boundary.

Cricinfo writer on BBC Test Match SpecialQuinton de Kock looks like a boxer sat on a chair during the drinks break, having his forehead dabbed with a towel.
It looks almost exaggerated but with this heat, sitting down is not a bad thing.

While the players take drinks, here is the first of Heinrich Klaasen's sixes.
Superb player.

Here's how Bangladesh picked up the wicket of Aiden Markram.

You really can't offer any length to Heinrich Klaasen.
Nasum Ahmed does and the South African just plants it over mid-wicket for another six.
He latches onto it so well.

Cricinfo writer on BBC Test Match SpecialThat is a muted celebration from Quinton de Kock. He leapt into the air and roared with delight after his preivous two centures. This time it is just a raised bat and quiet word with Heinrich Klaasen
It could be the heat, or maybe he is just used to it now?

SA 187-3
Brilliant from the South Africa opener.
A third century in this World Cup on his ODI swansong. It comes up off 101 balls with six fours and four sixes.
It is a pretty muted celebration though. Tired? Or more to do?
SA 186-3published at 34 overs
Good over from Shoriful Islam, conceding just two singles.
This game is swinging from a good over from South Africa, to a good over for Bangladesh.
South Africa are ultimately in control though and well-positioned to post a game-winning total.

Yeesh. Quinton de Kock is almost run out.
He's called through for a quick single but doesn't really want it and hesitates.
He has to keep coming though and has to bring out the dive, but he would have been short of his ground if the throw had hit the stumps.

Cricinfo writer on BBC Test Match SpecialIt is incredible to think Quinton de Kock had never scored a World Cup century before this tournament and here he is on the verge of a third in five matches.
It speaks of a man completely unburdened, knowing it is his last outing in this format.
SA 184-3published at 33 overs
A decent comeback from Shakib Al Hasan, conceding just three runs from the final four balls of the over.
He's only got one over left now. He's struggled to create chances today.
SA 181-3published at 32.2 overs
Here we go.
Shakib Al Hasan drops short to Heinrich Klaasen and is pulled over mid-wicket for six.
Don't bowl length to Klaasen.
SA 174-3published at 32 overs
A change for Bangladesh but it is left-armer for left-armer as Shoriful Islam replaces Mustafizur Rahman.
Watchful stuff from South Africa as they help themselves to five singles.
SA 169-3published at 31 overs
Heinrich Klaasen is the new batter.
He did this to England on Saturday.
This could be carnage.

Jonathan Agnew
BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match SpecialAiden Markram will be kicking himself there. He can hit the ball so much harder than that.
He has lofted it straight to the fielder like he was giving him catching practice.

Markram c Das b Shakib 60 (SA 167-3)
Soft.
Aiden Markram looks to loft Shakib Al Hasan down the ground but just ends up tamely picking out long-off.
It is a bit of a half-hearted stroke really. Tiredness? Maybe.
