Bangladesh were seven without loss second time around when bad light brought play to a premature close on Saturday, still trailing by 419 runs. Das hit 70 runs, just short of half his team’s total, as Bangladesh buckled under the pace attack of Rabada and his frontline partner, Duanne Olivier, who finished with three for 40. Hashim Amla and captain Faf du Plessis both completed centuries before lunch after the home team began day two on 428 for three. Du Plessis went from 62 at the start of play to 135 not out as South Africa dominated the Bangladesh bowling. Amla and Du Plessis joined Dean Elgar, who made 113, and Aiden Markram, bowled for 143 in just his second Test, as South Africa's centurions.
