Kyle Verreynne has, in his short time with the national team, never experienced any doubts about the commitment of pre-eminent stars such as Kagiso Rabada and Quinton de Kock to the Proteas cause ... and hopes cynics have changed their minds too.
The Proteas have received a blow with the news that all-rounder Wayne Parnell is out of the third and final One-Day International (ODI) against Bangladesh.
The Proteas will have to make the new ball and potentially easier batting conditions in the afternoon count if they are to keep a proud record in Pink ODIs intact as well as keep the three-match series against Bangladesh alive.
South Africa vs Bangladesh, 2nd ODI Live Score Updates: After registering a memorable victory in the first match of the series, Bangladesh will look to continue the winning momentum and take an unassailable 2-0 lead against hosts South Africa at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg on Sunday.

Bangladesh can go in with the same final XI while the hosts can make a few changes to put the balance right in the team. (LIVE SCORECARD)
South Africa vs Bangladesh 1st ODI Live Score: Bangladesh openers got off to a good start after South Africa won the toss and decided to bowl in the first one-day international at SuperSport Park in Centurion on Friday. South Africa were without wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton de Kock because of illness. Bangladesh captain Tamim said he was confident about a team packed with all-rounders as well as some promising fast bowlers. The three-match series is part of the International Cricket Council's World Cup Super League which counts towards qualification for the 2023 Cricket World Cup.
South Africa will be without their entire first-choice pace attack comprising Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi and Marco Jansen as well as batters Aiden Markram and Rassie van der Dussen as they chose the IPL over the Test series. Cricket South Africa had said it would be leaving it to the players to make the decision whether to play in the IPL or in the series, which the Test captain Dean Elgar had called a "litmus test of loyalty". Middle-order batter Khaya Zondo got his maiden Test call-up and uncapped quick Daryn Dupavillon also found a place in the squad.
Proteas limited-overs captain Temba Bavuma said it wasn't an ideal situation not to have your best players available for a series because of the Indian Premier League.
The South African Test side for the two-match home series against Bangladesh "will be without its IPL players," announced Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Thursday. The likes of Marco Jansen, Aiden Markram, Lungi Ngidi, Kagiso Rabada and Rassie van der Dussen were not included in the 15-man squad released by CSA. Jansen, Markram, Ngidi and Dussen featured in South Africa's 2-1 series victory against India and also in the away series against New Zealand. But the five cricketers along with Quinton de Kock, Dwaine Pretorius, David Miller have got IPL contracts which clashes with the Bangladesh Tests. IPL 2022 begins from March 26 while the first South Africa-Bangladesh Test is scheduled to begin on March 31.
