Cricket World Cup: Shakib Al Hasan "Planning To Restrict" South Africa To A Low Total

23.10.2023 - 15:57 sports.ndtv.com

Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan believes an on-song South Africa are not impregnable and can be restricted to smaller totals in the World Cup like the Netherlands did, adding that he would need his fast bowlers over spinners to deliver.

Bangladesh, on a three-match losing streak, will face an uphill battle against South Africa on Tuesday, who are coming off a 229-run thrashing of England and have recorded the two highest scores in the World Cup in four matches already.

After posting a monumental 428 for five against Sri Lanka in New Delhi, South Africa piled up 399 for seven against England.

South Africa also had a good batting day against Australia, putting 311 for seven and their only blip with the bat came in the chase against the Netherlands, when they crumbled for 207 chasing 246 in a rain-truncated game.
