What Have The Two Teams Done Recently?
Bangladesh
Bangladesh had come into this series after suffering a 2-0 reverse at the hands of India away from home but they had also defeated Pakistan 2-0 in their own backyard.
They lost to South Africa by seven wickets in their opener here.
South Africa
South Africa eased to a win in the opening Test of this series on a spin-friendly pitch at Mirpur. This propelled their chances of making the WTC final.
This result had followed a 1-0 series win in West Indies and a 2-0 loss at the hands of New Zealand away after they had opted to field a second-string team in that series.

Bangladesh vs South Africa 2nd Test Preview & Predictions with Latest Odds*
The manner in which Bangladesh were outplayed in the opening Test, it seems like those days of the Pakistan series win are way behind them.
Instead, we have a whitewash staring at them and unless they find a way to bat better than they have in recent times, it looks like a lost cause. They will need a lot more from their captain Najmal Shanto and experienced wicket-keeper Litton Das.
South Africa, on the other hand, would be thanking their lower-order to have gotten them out of a spot after they slumped to 108/6 in response to Bangladesh’s 106.
A Kyle Verreynne century and his 119-run stand with Wiaan Mulder ensured a 202-run lead and from that point onward it was far too much for the hosts to handle.
Can the hosts come back stronger at Chattogram? We think there might be a few surprises.
