Speaking on the eve of the match, the Bangla Tigers skipper said: "It is a very important match for both sides but for South Africa, who would have expected two points from their first game, this is a do-or-die match. They will be under some pressure." He added: "We have a win under our belt, and now we will be playing at a ground that normally aids spinners. They have a number of world-class players in their side, but we will try to the best of our ability."
