Bangladesh have taken the field against South Africa in the first Test of the series. At the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg, visiting captain Najmul Hossain Shanto won the toss and his team will bat first.

Robin is making his Test debut in this match. Bangladesh have handed him a place in the eleven in the very first match of the series.

The match at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg starts at 2 pm. T Sports is broadcasting the match live.

The Bangladesh team faced a mountain of a challenge going into this series: after a 15-hour flight, they had only three days to prepare before taking the field.

Having won the toss and chosen to bat, the start of the innings now rests with Bangladesh's batters. The visitors will be looking for a good start in the first match of the series against South Africa at the Wanderers.
