Bangladesh are set to clash with South Africa in the second Test of their two-match series on Tuesday, aiming to level the series after a challenging defeat in the first match. Under the leadership of Najmul Hossain Shanto, the Bangladesh team faced difficulties against South Africa’s potent pace attack, particularly in their first innings.
Despite showing resilience in the second innings, they set a modest target, which the Proteas chased down comfortably with seven wickets to spare. As the teams prepare for the series decider at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram, Bangladesh will be determined to secure a comeback victory. Meanwhile, South Africa will be eager to clinch the series win and enhance their position in the World Test Championship (WTC) standings.
South Africa tour of Bangladesh 2024, 2nd Test:
- Date and Time: October 29; 03:30 am GMT/ 09:00 am IST/ 09:30 am local

Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium Pitch Report
The Chattogram pitch is anticipated to favor seam bowlers at the start, offering extra bounce and movement with the new ball. As the game advances, however, spinners are expected to become increasingly influential, taking advantage of the considerable turn available on the surface. Batting conditions may deteriorate over time, underscoring the importance of winning the toss, as teams are likely to opt to bat first in order to enhance their prospects of success.
