South Africa survived a scare against the Netherlands to get out of the Dutch rut in the World Cups in recent times. South Africa now have won both the games they have played so far and are currently at the top of the table in Group D in the ongoing ICC Men's T20 World Cup and would want to seal their Super 8 spot in the next game as they take on Bangladesh at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Monday, June 10.
New York pitch hasn't suited the Proteas batters at all and even though they would feel that more games would help them get accustomed to the surface, it hasn't happened yet and now they will be sort of relieved that only one game is left at the venue and they have already four points in the couple of matches.
Bangladesh won their opening game of the tournament against Sri Lanka and now have a golden chance to get through to the Super 8 stage but South Africa will be their toughest opponent. Also, Bangladesh will be playing for the first time at the venue and would have to adjust quickly to be able to compete against the Proteas.
