Ayabonga Khaka’s first 14 balls at Senwes Park were sensational. She secured career-best 3 for 13, helped skittle Bangladesh for 89 – their third-lowest total in ODIs – and set up South Africa’s nine-wicket win – their largest margin of victory against Bangladesh in terms of wickets – with 32.5 overs to spare.Opening the attack with Shabnim Ismail, after Bangladesh elected to bat, Khaka took out the top three. She bowled Sanjida Islam and Faragana Hoque, the top-scorer from the series opener, and had Murshida Khatun caught behind. The early strikes left the visitors reeling at 10 for 3 inside six overs.That there was little recovery from Bangladesh after the top-order crumbled was partially down to Raisibe Ntozakhe, who ran through the middle order with her offspin, claiming 3 for 16 – her maiden three-wicket haul.Only three batsmen managed double-digit scores. Panna Ghosh had a day to remember though, helping Bangladesh record their best ninth-wicket partnership a day after being involved in their best tenth-wicket partnership. She top-scored with 20 off 54 balls.South Africa continued dominating the game with openers Lizelle Lee and Laura Wolvaardt stitching together a second consecutive fifty stand. After Lee fell for a 37-ball 32, Wolvaardt and Trisha Chetty build on the 65-run opening stand with an unbeaten 37 and 13 respectively and sealed the chase in the 18th over. South Africa are now 2-0 up in the five-match series.
