Bangladesh vs South Africa স্কোরকার্ড, Match 30, ICC T20 World Cup 2021

South Africa have won each of their six men's T20Is against Bangladesh, it's the most matches the Proteas have played against any team in the format without losing; indeed, only one other side in the men's edition has played more games against an opponent and logged a 100% win percentage (Afghanistan – W7 v Scotland).

South Africa have won nine of their last 10 men's T20Is (L1), including their last two in succession – the Proteas' only defeat in that span was a five-wicket loss to Australia in their opening game of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021.

Bangladesh have lost each of their last three men's T20Is, the last time the Tigers logged a longer losing run in the format was a four-match span from November 2019 to January 2020.

South Africa have won three of their last four ICC Men's T20 World Cup matches (L1), including their last two in succession – the last time the Proteas enjoyed a longer winning run at the tournament was a three-match span in March 2014.

South Africa have made a good connection on 80% or more balls faced against spin in each of their last two men's T20Is, as many times as they did so in their nine T20I innings prior.

Bangladesh have conceded fewer than 30 runs in the power play of two of their last four men's T20Is after having done so only once in their five games prior.

David Miller (South Africa) has scored 156 runs without dismissal across his last three T20I innings against Bangladesh, including an unbeaten innings of 101 runs from just 36 balls when he last faced them (29 October 2017).

Quinton de Kock (South Africa) is one away from recording the outright most 50+ scores of any player for the Proteas in men's T20Is (11 – also Faf du Plessis and JP Duminy); he scored 59 in his most recent T20I innings against Bangladesh (26 October 2017).

Mahmudullah (1,921) is 79 away from becoming the first player to reach 2,000 runs for Bangladesh in men's T20Is; however, his T20I batting average against South Africa (13.5) is his third lowest against any team he has played more than one innings against (10.5 v Ireland, 11 v Pakistan).

Mohammad Saifuddin (Bangladesh) has a batting dot ball percentage of just 11% at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021, the best of any player to have faced more than five balls at the tournament so far.
