South Africa defeated Bangladesh by just four runs in another low-scoring match at the T20 World Cup on Monday.
South Africa were restricted to 113-6 in their 20 overs with Heinrich Klaasen top-scoring on 46 while fast bowler Tanzim Hasan Sakib returned a career-best 3-18.
However, Bangladesh could only manage 109-7 in reply as South Africa wrapped up a third win in three Group D games.
Captain Aiden Markram, who too, the catch to seal the match, said it was always going to be pretty nervous in the last over like this, after taking the final catch to seal the match.
Heinrich Klaasen was named man of the match for his 46 runs off 44 deliveries as South Africa clinched three wins from three matches.
