Bangladesh in fielding with 2 changes in XI

After winning the three-match ODI series in South Africa, the confident Bangladesh team entered the field in the two-match Test series. However, the start of the white-clad fight against the Proteas was not a happy one for captain Muminul Haque's team. They lost by a big margin of 220 runs. Bangladesh will face South Africa in the second and final match of the series in Port Elizabeth on Friday with two changes in the XI.

In the second Test, however, the toss luck was on the side of the hosts. Dean Elgar's team will bat first in this match like in Durban Test. The match will start at 2 pm Bangladesh time.

In the second and final match, the visitors made two changes in their XI. Opener Tamim Iqbal has recovered. He is going to play Test again after almost 1 year. Sadman Islam had to stay out of the XI to give way to Tamim. Meanwhile, pacer Taskin Ahmed is not playing due to injury and left-arm spinner Taizul Islam has got a chance there.

Desperate to return to the series, Bangladesh made the XI of the Port Elizabeth Test with 2 pacers and 2 spinners.
