Who will win the SA vs BAN 1st ODI?
Even though Bangladesh have been in a fantastic form lately, winning against South Africa at their home can be tough, specially when SA whitewashed India in their last series. Bangladesh will stand a chance only if they chase because they have fantastic batting strength with mixture of both experience and young blood. Liton Das will be their main batsman because he scores with a good SR. even after that they have to tackle Shamsi who will fancy his chances at home, with also Rabada at the death overs. If SA bowls first, they would mostly run into a dominant win. SA has also won all of their last 5 ODIs.
Key Stat
Bangladesh are yet to win a single match against SA at their home in 20 years of Cricket.

Player Prediction
Liton Das : He is the only batsman who has been consistent for a long time in Bangladesh now. He had a good last series and he will mainly continue his form.
Quinton de Kock : Even though he isnt in form, a player like him doesnt take much time to get back in form. Conditions and opposition suits him so he can go big.
Aiden Markram : Lately Markram is being played as an allrounder and goes very economical if not a wicket taking option. He is as classy as anyone is and should be among runs this series.
Van dur Dussen : He has been the most consistent batsman for SA across all format since a long. He does well when he comes after the PP, fantastic player of spin and also finishes 8/10 games for SA.
