DHAKA: An entire second day’s play in the second and final Test between Bangladesh and South Africa was wiped out on Friday as rain continued to wreak havoc in the series. It is for the third time in the series that an entire day’s play was lost as heavy rain, caused by cyclone Komen, forced the umpires to abandon the second day of the Mirpur Test at 12 pm. The South African and Bangladesh players had not even arrived at the Shere Bangla Stadium and will now contest what is effectively a four-day Test. Bangladesh had ended the first day disappointingly after building a solid foundation with the bat, losing four wickets for 31 runs in the final session as Dale Steyn found substantial reverse swing.
