Kallis fifty keeps SA steady against Bangladesh

In the ICC Cricket World Cup, South Africa were 221 for 3 against Bangladesh a short while ago, in a Group-B encounter. At the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur. Jacques Kallis scored his 82nd ODI fifty, it was a flying start for the proteas as they scored a decent 83 runs in the first fifteen overs without a wicket. Both the openers, Hashim Amla and Graeme Smith added 98 runs for the first wicket before the Skipper was shown the doors with some brilliant combination of Spin bowling from Mahmudullah and Glovemanship from Mushfiqur Rahim. Smith was stumped for 45 followed by the wicket of half centurian Hashim Amla, who edged a harmless ball back onto his stumps. Later today, Australia will clash with Pakistan at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. All India Radio will broadcast live commentary on this day-night match. The commentary can be heard on Rajdhani Channel and FM Gold from 2 P.M. onwards.
