Morne Morkel set South Africa on the path to victory over Bangladesh, then departed with an injury to leave the Proteas facing a final-day examination of their bowling resources. Morkel struck twice in a venomous first over, nearly grabbed a third victim in his second, then departed midway through his sixth with a side strain.

The news later emerged that the injury was serious enough to require a scan on Monday morning, making it unlikely that he will bowl again
