SA vs Ban, 2nd Test | Taijul Islam takes six wickets but South Africa in control of match

Bangladesh left-arm spinner Taijul Islam took 6-135 but the touring side are behind in the game after they limped to 139 for five at the close on day two of the second and final test against South Africa on Saturday.

Bangladesh are still 314 runs behind their hosts’ total of 453 all out at St George’s Park and their first aim will be to avoid the follow-on when Mushfiqur Rahim (30 not out) and Yasir Ali (8 not out) resume on the third morning.

Seamer Wiaan Mulder (3/15) has been the pick of the home bowlers, removing Tamim Iqbal lbw for a brisk 47.
