Despite Maharaj bowling three full tosses in the final over, Bangladesh couldn&#8217;t capitalize, ending at 109 for seven.<\/p>\n<p>Anrich Nortje (2\/17), Kagiso Rabada (2\/19), and Marco Jansen (0\/17) provided solid support.<br \/>South Africa recovered to post 113 for six after opting to bat on a challenging surface.<br \/>Bangladesh struggled in their run chase, losing Tanzid Hasan (9) early after a couple of boundaries, while skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto (14 off 23) and Litton Das (9 off 13) failed to capitalize on their starts.<br \/>Shakib Al Hasan (3) fell victim to Nortje&#8217;s pace, lobbing a mishit high in the air.<\/p>\n<p>At 50 for four, Bangladesh found hope in a crucial partnership between Hridoy and Mahmudullah, adding 44 runs for the fifth wicket. However, Hridoy&#8217;s dismissal in the 18th over, leg-before off Rabada, changed the game&#8217;s dynamics.<br \/>Earlier, pacers Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Taskin Ahmed impressed in favorable conditions, restricting South Africa to a below-par total.<br \/>Tanzim (3\/18) and Taskin (2\/19) dismantled the Proteas top order, with support from Mustafizur (0\/18), despite resistance from Heinrich Klaasen (46) and David Miller (29).<\/p>\n<p>Klaasen and Miller attempted to stabilize South Africa&#8217;s innings with a 79-run partnership for the fifth wicket, but struggled to accelerate on a challenging pitch where the Bangladesh spinners maintained control.<br \/>Tanzim&#8217;s early strikes left South Africa reeling at 23 for four within the first five overs. He dismissed captain Aiden Markram (4) and Tristan Stubbs (0) with simple yet effective tactics.<\/p>\n<p>Klaasen managed a couple of sixes against Bangladesh spinners, while Miller rotated the strike. However, Taskin dismissed Miller late in the innings, ending his 44-ball knock.<br \/>Despite their efforts, Klaasen and Miller found scoring difficult on the Nassau County pitch, unable to unleash their attacking instincts.<\/div>\n<p><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n
