    There is no visible intent at the moment.

    This is getting a little bit difficult for Bangladesh. Mushfiqur Rahim is just eyeing getting himself in. It is never easy for a team when you are chasing a big total and lose early wickets. It is about the partnerships.

    Thanks, Sam.

    There are plenty of glum faces on the Bangladesh balcony. It would take a mammoth effort to turn this match round from here.

    There is no let up either as Kagiso Rabada enters the attack.

  4. Ban 35-3published at 10 overs

    Target 383

    When play eventually resumes, Gerald Coetzee gets through the over with just a single from it.

    Liton Das crunches the last delivery towards point. It hung in the air, could have been caught, could have been four but, ultimately, lands short of the man but is stopped. Dot ball.

    That's the powerplay over and it's time for me to hand over to Tom Mallows.

    Target 383

    We've got a delay as the physio comes out to treat Liton Das for what appears to be a problem with his thigh.

    Here's the third wicket to fall. Shakib Al Hasan caught behind off Lizaad Williams.

    Williams' spell is over, though, Gerald Coetzee will bowl the last six balls of the powerplay...

    South Africa have bowled really well and on the stumps - they have barely given Bangladesh any width.

  8. Ban 34-3published at 9 overs

    Target 383

    A quiet over from Marco Jansen sees just two runs come from it, a wide to start and a quick single to finish for Mushfiqur Rahim.

    You have to wonder how Bangladesh are going to approach this innings. They've got 41 overs left to bat but with three wickets down already, getting up to 383 already feels beyond them.

    Bat the overs and get a bit of time in the middle or really go for it, entertain the crowd but risk an extremely heavy defeat?

    Bangladesh are in big trouble already with Marco Jansen taking two wickets in as many balls in his previous over...

  10. Ban 32-3published at 8 overs

    Target 383

    New batter Mushfiqur Rahim comes in and gets off the mark with a single first ball.

    As we've already established, Liton Das has no interest in such things. He blocks out the next three balls - it's now three boundaries and 22 dot balls from the first 25 he's faced.

    Bangladesh are struggling with the bounce.

    South Africa are turning the screws. Bangladesh are in serious strive.

    WICKETpublished at 7.2 overs

    Shakib c Klaasen b Williams 1 (Ban 31-3)

    Three down! It's a first World Cup wicket for Lizaad Williams!

    There's a bit of extra bounce for the seamer as he angles it across the left-hander but essentially, Shakib Al Hasan gets suckered in to chasing a wide one.

    It's a nothing shot as he just feels for the ball and nicks it behind.

    Bangladesh are going the same way as England on Saturday...

  14. Ban 31-2published at 7 overs

    Target 383

    Shakib Al Hasan plays and misses at the hat-trick ball as Marco Jansen's attempted yorker is slightly off the mark.

    A single next ball is the only run from a very successful over for Jansen and South Africa.

    Shanto c Klaasen b Jansen 0 (Ban 30-2)

    Two in two balls! Marco Jansen is on a hat-trick.

    It's a leg-side strangle as Najmul Hossain Shanto works one off his pads, the ball comes off the face of the bat but very fine and Heinrich Klaasen takes the catch tumbling to his right.

    Bangladesh's already incredible tough task, just got tougher.

    He will feel hard done by there. If he leaves it alone it is probably a wide but with just two fielders out he tries to hit out.

    The height that Marco Jansen bowls from gives him a little bit more bounce and it was a feather through to the keeper.

    Tanzid c Klaasen b Jansen 12 (Ban 30-1)

    Feathered behind on the pull.

    Tanzid Hasan tries to keep the momentum going for Bangladesh as he goes after a bumper from Marco Jansen.

    The ball was high and heading down leg but Tanzid just gets something on it to send it into the gloves of wicketkeeper Heinrich Klaasen.

    One down, nine to go for South Africa.

    He got a little nod of approval from Lizaad Williams there.
