On Day 3 of the first test, Kyle Verreynne's century helped South Africa dominate Bangladesh, pushing their first innings lead to 202 runs. Despite a strong performance from their spin bowlers, Bangladesh were unable to stop Verreynne's partnership with Wiaan Mulder and unbeaten stand with Mushfiqur Rahim. With South Africa in control, Bangladesh will need a strong performance on Day 4 to avoid having to bat a second time.
