Get all the details for the 1st Test between Bangladesh (BAN) and South Africa (SA), including match preview, head-to-head stats, probable XI, Dream11 Predictions and live streaming details.

Bangladesh will aim for glory as they take on South Africa in a home Test series starting on Monday. The Asian side was in red-hot form as they defeated Pakistan on away soil, earlier this year. Their winning streak was brought to an end by India in their last red-ball cricket series.

Despite troubling the Rohit Sharma-led side in the first innings of the opening Test, Bangladesh players struggled to find consistency as India trampled their way to a 2-0 triumph. Bangladesh will now be looking to redeem themselves by pulling off an upset against South Africa. The upcoming series will also be Shakib Al Hasan’s last Test campaign with Bangladesh. He will be hoping to end his Test career on a winning note.

The opening Test between Bangladesh and South Africa will take place at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on October 21. The Proteas last faced the West Indies in a Test match in August this year. They won the bout 1-0, beating West Indies by 40 runs. South Africa is currently in fourth place in the overall ICC Test rankings. They will be looking to rack up some crucial points against Bangladesh next.
