Team Bangladesh lost the toss, and will bowl first in their second match of the T20 World Cup against South Africa in Sydney on Thursday.
Bangladesh has made a change to their playing eleven, Yasir Ali has been overlooked for Mehidy Hasan Miraz.
The surface of Sydney is more friendly to the spinners, which has inspired the Bangladesh management to add an extra spinner.
South Africa too did the same. They added Tabraiz Shamsi to the playing eleven, replacing Lungi Ngidi.
However, right after the toss, the wickets had to be covered for a while due to rains. The showers could come again during the match.
Bangladesh won their first match against the Netherlands, while South Africa’s first match was washed away due to rains.
