The iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai will be hosting the South Africans again for their next match of the ICC World Cup 2023 on Tuesday (October 24) against Bangladesh. The historic venue had earlier witnessed the Proteas' comprehensive triumph versus defending champions England.

The Proteas came out victorious by a whopping 229-run margin after dismissing the Englishmen for a paltry 170 all out, having made a jaw-dropping total of 399/7 in 50 overs. The men from the Rainbow Nation stand at the third position in the points table following three wins in four league matches. 

Bangladesh on the other hand have been battered and bruised since winning their opening game of the campaign to the inexperienced Afghanistan. Shakib Al Hasan's men have suffered heavy defeats against England, New Zealand and India in their last three games.

With heavy dew expected under lights, team calling the flip of the coin right would want to be chasing at the iconic venue or risk operating with the pressure to outbat the opposition in the first half. No score below the 350 mark can be considered safe at this ground.
