ZAF vs BGD 2nd Test Day 2 match prediction 9 Apr 2022

SA vs BAN Day 2 Predictions & Betting Tips

The 2nd Test is to be continued between South Africa and the visitors, Bangladesh, on the second day of the ongoing play. The match is being played at St George's Park, Port Elizabeth from April 8. Ahead of this encounter, I have three best betting tips from the SA vs BAN match prediction.

After the 2nd day of play, South Africa registered a total of 278 runs with the loss of 5 wickets. Half-centuries from Dean Elgar, Temba Bavuma and Keegan Petersen kept South Africa's scorecard ticking for most of the first day of the Test. Left-arm spinner Taijul Islam, who was brought in to replace the injured Taskin Ahmed, was the best bowler of the day with three wickets, while Khaled Ahmed picked up two. This should boost things up for Bangladesh on the 2nd day of the play. Currently as it stands, Verreynne is batting at 10 runs and finds himself opposite to Mulder who is yet to start his account after the 1st day of the play. Hence ahead of the 2nd day of the play, take a look at the top three betting tips from the SA vs BAN head to head game.

SA vs BAN Team Bets:

Let me walk you through the best team bets from the SA vs BAN head-to head encounter.

South Africa to score under 411.5 runs

South Africa are placed fourth in the ICC Test rankings. They had a fairly start to the year with winning the Test series against India by 2-1. They posted scores under 250 against India while the bowling order buckled up to bag the victory. Later in February, South Africa lost a Test against New Zealand by a huge margin where they posted 95 & 111 runs whereas registered 364 & 354 runs in the 2nd game to tie the tally. Notably, in all the innings, the squad failed to register a score close to the desired target. Their totals in the first Test read as 367 and 204 runs, less than our target. Bangladesh presented a capable bowling attack in the recent Test scenario, unlike their batting performances. Currently, Wiaan Mulder and Kyle Verreynne are batting on the crease with 0 and 10 runs in their pockets. SA have scored 278 runs and have 134 more runs to score before attaining the desired target. This looks far-fetched and with no major batter left in the line-up after the loss of 5 wickets after the second day of the play, it looks unlikely for the squad to pull off the big target. Pari Match offers the odds of 1.87 for SA to bundle out before scoring 411.5 runs and you should take these favourable odds for a great payday.

South Africa to score over 305.5 runs before next dismissal

South Africa has been fairly capable of maintaining their international stance in the Test cricket scenario and had a great start to 2022 in the format. They made a comeback after a defeat in the 1st Test match in the three match series against India to embark on a 2-1 victory over the latter. It followed a draw against New Zealand in the recently concluded series in February 2022. Currently, Mulder, averaging at 14.40 in Test cricket, and Verreynne, averaging at 28.20, are standing on the crease with the scores of 0 and 10 runs respectively. SA scoreboard reads as 278 with the loss of 5 wickets and no major batsmen left in the squad. In the previous Test outing between the sides, Verreyne scored 28 & 6 runs in the match whereas Mulder settled for the low totals of 0 & 11 runs. Mulder helped the team sustain the partnership for 0 and 20 runs in the previous game. Having said that, Pari Match offers the odds of 1.87 for the same and you should take it to capitalise on this betting tip from the SA vs BAN match prediction.

SA vs BAN Player Bets:

I have picked Kyle Verrynne for the best player betting tip from the SA vs BAN match prediction. Read further for a better insight.

Kyle Verreynne to score under 42.5 runs

Kyle Verreynne is a 24 year old young batsman from South Africa. He is a right handed batter and fields as a wicket keeper for his team. He made his Test debut against West Indies in 2021 and has appeared in 7 Test matches since then. He managed to score a sum of 282 runs from those games at an average of 28.20 with a single century, while striking out early on other occasions. 2022 was not a great year for the batter where except for an innings, he failed to score over our desired target on all the other occasions. His scores in 2022 read as - 21, 0, 18 & 30, 4 & 136* and 28 & 6 runs. He scored 28 & 6 runs in the previous Test against Bangladesh, further concreting this lucrative betting tip. Verreynne averages at 22.00 against Bangladesh and it gets worse batting at home conditions. His average playing in South Africa is 16.25 after 4 games. All these facts lead to a conclusion for Verreynne to strike out under 43 runs and with Pari Match offering the odds of 1.87 for the same, you should pick it to earn yourself a payday.

South Africa to score over 305.5 runs before next dismissal @ 1.87 (Pari Match)
