The Proteas lost the early wickets of Reeza Hendricks and Rassie van der Dussen in the first powerplay. Bangladesh bowlers didn't allow any South African batter to settle which made the situation difficult for them in the beginning.
Quinton de Kock and skipper Aiden Markram took the responsibility for South Africa's batting. De Kock completed his half century and Markram played the role of supporting the left hander in his inning built up. Both didn't give any chance to the Bengal Tigers to strike their wickets.
