South Africa emerged victorious against Bangladesh in the second Test match in Chattogram, securing a 2-0 series win.
Opting to bat first, South Africa capitalized on favorable conditions from the outset. Aiden Markram and Tony de Zorzi set the tone with a solid opening partnership of 69 runs. De Zorzi then combined with Tristan Stubbs to put on an impressive 201-run stand for the second wicket, with both players notching up their maiden centuries in Test cricket.
On the second day of play, de Zorzi continued his fine form, eventually reaching a score of 177. Despite a slight dip in the middle-order, Wiaan Mulder stepped up to become the third centurion of the innings, finishing unbeaten on 105. Contributions from Senuran Muthusamy (68*) and David Bedingham (59) further bolstered South Africa's total, which reached 575-6 before they declared.
South Africa's bowlers then made quick work of the Bangladesh batting lineup, with Kagiso Rabada claiming a five-wicket haul to dismiss the hosts for just 159 runs after lunch on day three. Enforcing the follow-on, South Africa sealed the victory by an innings and 273 runs as Keshav Maharaj also picked up a five-wicket haul in the second innings.
