LONDON: South African skipper Faf du Plessis won the toss and decided his side would bowl first to Bangladesh at The Oval on Sunday. I thought he did really well to restrict a strong England batting line-up,” du Plessis said after the toss. South Africa’s earlier defeat to England exposed its reliance on a few batsmen, especially Quinton de Kock, who made 68, and captain Faf du Plessis. The Bangladesh squad has come to the World Cup with the stated intention of reaching the semifinals for the second consecutive time. South Africa also holds no fear for them, after winning their home series four years ago, and their match at the 2007 World Cup.
