Lean: South AfricaSurface: Pace & bounceToss: bowl firstHome side: South Africa

South Africa meet Bangladesh for match 2 of 8 in the Bangladesh tour of South Africa, 2026, a Test at SuperSport Park, Centurion. It is listed for Thursday 19 November 2026, with the start at 19:30 IST. South Africa have home conditions on their side, which our model counts as a small edge.

South Africa's edge is their pace attack, while Bangladesh's is their spin attack. The side whose strength suits SuperSport Park gets the first say. SuperSport Park is a bouncy highveld surface with good carry for the quick bowlers, so we expect a pace & bounce surface with a first-day score around 288–350 for South Africa and 258–314 for Bangladesh.

Warm days keep the surface hard, with afternoon storms possible on the highveld. Because a draw is a live result here (20%), watch how much time is lost before you read anything into a single session.

Win probability

Who will win today's match?

South Africa 75%, draw 20%, Bangladesh 5%. A draw carries real weight in a Test, so read the split as three outcomes rather than two.

Model lean

South Africa

75% to win · 70-point gap

The split comes from batting, pace and spin ratings for both teams, adjusted for SuperSport Park and South Africa's home conditions. It is an indicative model, not a live market price and not betting advice.

On a pace & bounce surface, South Africa's pace group gets the extra weight in the model.

Rain and bad light matter more in a longer match, so the draw figure moves first when the forecast changes.
