Rabada sets up SA's 1st test win in Asia since 2014

South Africa have moved up to fourth place on the World Test Championship table after a seven-wicket win over Bangladesh in Mirpur on Thursday. 

They chased a target of 106 in 22 overs to seal victory before lunch on the fourth day after Kagiso Rabada finished the match with nine wickets.

This was their first Test win in the subcontinent in 15 matches, dating back a decade to when they beat Sri Lanka in Galle in 2014.

Aggression and intent were the tone of final exchanges South Africa hit 15 fours and two sixes, and ticked along at a shave under five runs an over. 

They lost three of their top four in pursuit but the batters were largely comfortable on unfamiliar surfaces and new No. 3, Tristan Stubbs, who was unbeaten on 30, impressed with his ability to adapt.
