Wiaan Mulder and Kagiso Rabada of South Africa wiped out Bangladesh's strongest team on Monday at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium in Dhaka with their outstanding bowling performances. The entire Bangladesh team got out for just 106 runs in the face of both bowlers' sharp bowling. The host team now has to consider how to save this test after the South African team expressed concern about the spin issue before the game. Their fast bowlers were so sharp in the first innings. The only batsman from Bangladesh to score over thirty was Mahmudul Hasan Joy; no other batter was able to achieve over twenty.

Bangladesh captain Nazmul Shanto calls the coin and elects to bat first. Hasan Joy and Shadman Islam open the innings. As early as the second over, Mulder strikes the first blow to the team getting Shadman out. Meanwhile, Mominul and Shanto were also sent to the pavilion, which resulted in 3 wickets lost for 21 runs. After that, the storm of Kagiso Rabada came and he cheaply sent Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das to the pavilion. Meanwhile, Rabada achieved another feat by bowling the least number of balls and taking 300 wickets in Test cricket. After Rabada was Keshav Maharaj who accounted for 3 wickets to shake the Bangladesh innings.

Mahesh then inflicted the sixth blow on Bangladesh when the score was 60 runs. He also went and sent Ali and Taijul Islam to the pavilion. Kagiso Rabada bagged 3 wickets for 26 runs in 4 overs, bowling 4 maiden overs. Mulder too took 4 wickets after bowling 4 maiden overs in 8 overs. Keshav Maharaj bowled 4 maiden overs in 16.1 overs and took 3 wickets for 34 runs. Dane Piedt attained one wicket, bowling out the opener Mahmudul Hasan Joy when he had scored 30.
