Live Cricket Scorecard: Bangladesh vs South Africa 2015, 2nd Test at Dhaka, Day 5

Bangladesh and South Africa were left frustrated Sunday after rain prevented any play for the third successive day, leaving the second and final Test headed for a draw with just one day remaining. Match officials called off play in the afternoon, without the teams taking to the field at Dhaka’s Sher-e-Bangla stadium following continuous heavy showers. Bangladesh reached 246 for eight in their first innings on the opening day, before rain prevented a single ball being bowled on the second, third and fourth days. South African paceman Dale Steyn took three for 30 on the first day, making him just the 13th cricketer in history to claim more than 400 Test wickets. South Africa’s debutant wicketkeeper Dane Villas expressed frustration with Sunday’s washout, after the first Test in Chittagong ended in a draw when rain stopped play on the last two days. Scorecard: Bangladesh vs South Africa, 2nd Test at Dhaka, Day 5

Paceman Steyn claimed three for 30 while off-spinner Duminy took three for 27, as a mini collapse in the final session restricted Bangladesh to 246 for eight at stumps. Skipper Mushfiqur Rahim scored the lone half-century for Bangladesh and made a 94-run partnership with Mahmudullah for the fourth wicket after he won the toss and elected to bat. Rahim hit 65 off 125 balls, his 15th Test fifty and first in 12 innings as Bangladesh made slow progress before South Africa took control of the game in the final session at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium.
