South Africa A and Bangladesh A will face each other in the 1st Unofficial ODI of the Bangladesh A tour of South Africa 2026 at the Mangaung Oval in Bloemfontein.

South Africa A come into this series after winning three of their last 5 matches in this format. They also had a good Test series against Bangladesh and will be familiar with the conditions in Bloemfontein. Their batting has plenty of experience, while the bowling attack also has players who can make an impact.

Bangladesh A have won 2 of their last 5 games, with two matches abandoned and one loss. Their batters showed better form in the second Test after a poor first game, and they will want to carry that confidence into the ODI format. However, their bowling has been a concern on this tour and they will need a much better performance against South Africa A.

South Africa A have the advantage in the head-to-head record, winning 3 of the 5 meetings, while Bangladesh A have won one. One match was abandoned due to bad weather.

South Africa A Preview

South Africa A have won 3 of their last 5 matches in this format and will enter the first ODI with plenty of confidence. Their recent performances have shown that they have enough quality in both batting and bowling, while playing at home should also help them understand the conditions better.

South Africa A have several batters who can put Bangladesh under pressure. Zubayr Hamza has scored 2,703 runs in 82 matches at an average of 38.61 and brings plenty of experience to the top order. Delano Potgieter has also scored 1,578 runs in 69 matches at an average of 36.69. 

Along with Lesego Senokwane and Marques Ackerman, South Africa A have a good batting group. Their batters were impressive during the Test series, and they will be looking to continue that form in the shorter format.

The bowling attack also has enough experience to trouble Bangladesh's batters. Kyle Simmonds has taken 74 wickets in 58 matches at an average of 28.14, while Delano Potgieter has 50 wickets in 69 matches. South Africa A have shown that they can take wickets regularly, and their bowlers will be expected to make the most of the conditions at home.

Key Players: Zubayr Hamza, Delano Potgieter, Kyle Simmonds

South Africa A Predicted Playing XI:

Lesego Senokwane, Marques Ackerman, Zubayr Hamza, Delano Potgieter, Tshepang Dithole, Tshepo Moreki, Tshepo Ntuli, Matthew Roger Boast, Gavin Kaplan, Sinethemba Qeshile, Kyle Simmonds

South Africa A Actual Playing XI:

Matthew De Villiers, Dian Forrester, Kyle Simmonds, Rivaldo Moonsamy, Imran Manack, Mihlali Mpongwana, Zubayr Hamza, Marques Ackerman, Sinethemba Qeshile, Gerald Coetzee, Okuhle Cele

Bangladesh A Preview

Bangladesh A will be playing their first match of the ODI series after a mixed run of results in their last five games. They have won two, lost one and had two matches abandoned. Their improved batting performance in the second Test should give them some confidence, but the bowling unit will need to step up.

Towhid Hridoy is one of the main players Bangladesh A will depend on. He has scored 5,117 runs in 144 matches at an average of 49.68 and has the experience to handle pressure situations. Mahmudul Hasan Joy has also scored 2,054 runs in 64 matches at an average of 36.67. 

The Bangladesh batters were unable to make a big impact in the first Test but came back strongly in the second game. They will be hoping to take that confidence into this ODI and give the team a good start.

Bowling has been one of Bangladesh A's concerns on this tour. Mohammad Saifuddin has taken 230 wickets in 146 matches at an average of 24.97, while Nayeem Hasan has 98 wickets in 73 matches at an average of 30.12. Both will have important roles to play against a South Africa A batting line-up that has shown good form. Bangladesh will need to keep things tight and take wickets at regular intervals.

Key Players: Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Mohammad Saifuddin

Bangladesh A Predicted Playing XI:

Tawhid Hridoy, Parvez Hossain Emon, Mohammad Saifuddin, Nayeem Hasan, Musfik Hasan, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Jaker Ali, Afif Hossain, Rejaur Rahman Raja, Hasan Murad, Mohammad Naim

Bangladesh A Actual Playing XI:

Parvez Hossain Emon, Mohammad Naim Sheikh, Afif Hossain, Al Fahad, Towhid Hridoy, Saif Hassan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Musfik Hasan, Nurul Hasan, Aliss Islam, Rishad Hossain

Average Turn
Img cricket stadium

Mangaung Oval has generally provided good conditions for ODI batting, with an average first-innings score of 248 runs and a second-innings average of 205. Teams have won 16 matches batting first and 18 while chasing across 36 ODIs at the venue, so there is not a huge difference between the two approaches.

The surface can offer good value for shots when the batters settle in, but the conditions can also help bowlers, especially if there is movement in the air. With the possibility of rain and strong winds around the match, the team that adapts better to the conditions should have an advantage.

Score Prediction

If South Africa A bat first: 275-300 runs
If Bangladesh A bat first: 260-280 runs

Toss: To Bowl

The captain winning the toss may prefer to bowl first and see how the conditions behave before setting a target. The venue's ODI record is quite balanced, with 18 wins for teams bowling first and 16 wins for teams batting first. However, the weather forecast could make the early conditions important, so bowling first could give the team a chance to use the conditions before batting later. 

Toss Prediction: South Africa A to win the coin toss

South Africa A will be the favourites for this game. They have won 3 of their last 5 matches in this format and will also have the advantage of playing at home. Their batting line-up has several experienced players, with Zubayr Hamza and Delano Potgieter expected to play important roles. 

Bangladesh A have quality players of their own, especially Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Mohammad Saifuddin. Their batting showed more confidence in the second Test, but their bowling needs to improve after being a concern on this tour. South Africa A look more settled in both departments and have the conditions in their favour. 

South Africa A to win the match.
