100 for Rossouw! Consecutive 100s for him in T20Is. What an innings and he gets there with a push wide of cover, emotional celebrations from Rossouw as he sinks to his knees and takes it all in. A tear or two I spotted. Means so much to him

Shakib to Rossouw, SIX, and once the 100 is done, Rossouw gets back to mauling sixes. This is right in the slot, full outside off, Rossouw has it easy as he sends this soaring over wide long-on

He is on a different zone!

Rilee Rossouw 107 runs from 54 balls, with 7 fours and 8 sixes!!!

What???????

It was as if the South African innings was motoring along at a 100kph before hitting an unbreakable barrier. They had 91 after ten overs, and 171 after 15; 80 runs were smacked during that while.

South Africa end on 205 but the last 5 overs have produced just 29. A combination of good bowling from Hasan Mahmud and Shakib+the pitch slowing down has sparked a comeback from Bangladesh. But the first 15 overs of carnage should be enough for South Africa to win this game. Rilee Rossouw was his brutal self - notching up consecutive hundreds in T20I innings; only the second batter to do so, the first is a surprise! Quinton de Kock played second fiddle and even that was scored at some pace. That partnership knocked the stuffing out of the Bangladesh bowlers who were carted all around. Sixes just flew everywhere and Bangladesh were rattled by that onslaught. South Africa will be hoping to get the 5 overs in quickly so that it's officially a game. Back for the chase very soon...

More than what South Africa missed - which could be around 20 runs - the 109 that Rossouw smashed, along with his 163-run stand with de Kock, will define this innings. South Africa keen for two points here, as Bangladesh get set for the 206 chase. Madushka will be here soon.

de Kock speaks to the host broadcaster: "Great to watch... He walked in with impetus, which is nice to have. If you had told us before the start, we'd have taken the total."

South Africa 205/5
