Bangladesh is currently facing a tough situation as South Africa is solidifying their 7th wicket partnership, giving them a significant boost. The pitch has become more favorable for batting as Kyle Verreynne and Wiaan Mulder have formed a strong partnership, putting South Africa in the lead in the Mirpur Test.
South Africa has already scored 225 runs, with Kyle Verreynne contributing 66 runs and Wiaan Mulder adding 54 runs. Hasan Mahmud took the crucial wicket of Wiaan Mulder, who was previously playing with a strong defense. However, back-to-back wickets by Hasan Mahmud have given Bangladesh some momentum. Earlier, Taijul Islam took five wickets, reaching his 200th wicket in Test cricket as the second Bangladeshi bowler to achieve this milestone.
The current scenario of the game shows that the pitch is constantly changing, providing advantages to both batters and bowlers.
