That is it! Proteas have clinched the win by seven wickets with a team effort. South Africa's Kyle Verryenne and Wiaan Mulder batted well in the first innings. As Verryenne completed his century and Wiaan Mulder batted well to smash a hal-century. Kagiso Rabada took a total of nine wickets and also marked his best figures in Test cricket against Bangladesh (6/46) in the second innings. The Proteas chased down the target on day 4 and are now leading the series 1-0.

OUT! Things could've worked differently but Tony de Zorzi falls short of his fifty. It was a slower delivery by Taijul Islam and Tony de Zorzi still went for a shot. Tony de Zorzi c Hasan Mahmud b Taijul Islam 41 (52)

OUT! South Africa are now one down. Aiden Markram was looking to go for a shot but instead got an inside edge with the ball hitting straight onto the stumps. Aiden Markram b Taijul Islam 20 (27)

After bowling Bangladesh all-out, South Africa are now on the chase. With captain Aiden Markram and Tony de Zorzi on the crease, Proteas will look to avoid giving the wickets away. Bangladesh's only chance is to take wickets.

OUT! Mehidy Hasan Miraz walks back without completing a well-deserved century. Mehidy gets an outside edge and Rabada wraps up things as hosts are now all out. Mehidy Hasan Miraz c Wiaan Mulder b Kagiso Rabada 97 (191)

Bangladesh National Cricket Team vs South Africa National Cricket Team Highlights: Mehidy Hasan Miraz did fight back hard for Bangladesh and was still on the crease as BAN vs SA 1st Test day 3 ended due to bad light. Bangladesh struggled to take control of the Test match as South Africa always had the upper hand. South Africa took early wickets on day 3 where they dismissed set batters Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Mushfiqur Rahim. Litton Das also failed to lay some impact after getting dismissed cheaply. Mushfiqur Rahim Becomes First Bangladesh Batter To Reach 6,000 Test Runs, Achieves Milestone During BAN vs SA 1st Test 2024.

But a crucial partnership between Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Jaker Ali changed some things for the hosts as they both added up a few runs before Jaker Ali fell prey to Keshav Maharaj. Mehidy Hasan is on the crease alongside Nayeem Hasan going into day 4. Both batters will try to add a few more runs and get to a respectable total. But as we have seen, South Africa bowlers do take wickets early in the day. If Bangladesh can avoid the early storm of Kagiso Rabada, then there will be fewer problems for them. Rabada completed his four-wicket haul and has proven to be very economical as well.

Keshav Maharaj also managed to complete a three-wicket haul but other than Rabada and Maharaj, other Proteas bowlers are yet to take a wicket in the second innings. Proteas will be keen on taking early wickets as they will want the hosts to crumble. Bangladesh will look to add runs and the only way to do that is to survive the early wrath of Proteas bowlers. Ball Hits Dane Piedt Instead Of Stumps As Hasan Mahmud Attempts A Run-Out During BAN vs SA 1st Test 2024 (Watch Video).
