Quinton de Kock back as Proteas need to chase in must-win clash against Tigers

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.

The visitors won the toss at the Wanderers on Sunday, clearly intent on replicating their successful recipe from Friday night 38-run victory in Centurion, where they put scoreboard pressure on the hosts and then bowled well.

South Africa have made three changes to their starting XI, notably having the influential Quinton de Kock in harness again after he missed the opener due to illness.

The experienced Wayne Parnell comes in for Andile Phehlukwayo, while T20 ace Tabraiz Shamsi replaces Marco Jansen as the Proteas bolster their spinning stocks.

Another noteworthy shuffle is Aiden Markram being dropped following a string of low scorers.

Bangladesh, unsurprisingly, have gone with an unchanged combination.

This fixture - in which the Proteas boast seven wins from nine starts - is traditionally a high-scoring affair, with South Africa boasting an average total of 282.
