South Africa will be locking horns against Bangladesh in Match 5 of the ICC World Cup at Kennington Oval in London. While South Africa lost their opening match against England by 104 runs, Bangladesh will be opening their campaign against the Proteas today.

South African skipper Faf Du Plessis won the toss and elected to bowl first.

Faf du Plessis: We'll have a bowl. Playing an extra seamer today, and we would like to attack the Bangladeshis in the first 15 overs. We did really well to restrict the strong England line-up to 300ish, and we were one partnership away from a really close chase. Amla's out, so Miller comes back in. Morris comes in as well, as I said we are trying to take advantage of the bounce on the wicket.

Mashrafe Mortaza: We are confident, had a good preparation. South Africa losing that day doesn't matter. We have to play hard. It's a good wicket to bat on. Tamim is playing. Everyone is fit to play.

South Africa are going into the game without their pace spearhead Dale Steyn and seasoned opener Hashim Amla.

Going by the records, South Africa have won two out the three matches played against Bangladesh at the World Cup. However, Bangladesh upset them in the Super Eight stages of the 2007 World Cup held in the Caribbean.
