First ODI
Sky Sports Cricket, 9am Sunday

South Africa are 1-7 to win the first of three ODIs against Bangladesh in Kimberley and that is not surprising as the Proteas thumped the Tigers in both recent Tests and have AB de Villiers fit again.

However, South Africa have lost their last two 50-over games at the Diamond Oval and they were knocked out of the Champions Trophy at the group stage like the visitors, who won a 2015 home ODI series between the teams 2-1. And Bangladesh are boosted by the return, after a rest, of ace all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan.

Back Quinton de Kock to hit a fifty at 6-4. The South Africa keeper-opener made 53 in their last ODI outing against India at The Oval in June and began last year's home ODI campaign with 82 against Ireland and 178 against Australia.
