South Africa, Bangladesh heading for draw after second washout

The Test series between Bangladesh and South Africa appears to be heading for a draw after a second day's play was lost on Saturday.

The opening match of the series ended in a stalemate after rain intervened, and the same has occurred during the second Test in Dhaka as the weather prevented any action from taking place for the second successive day.

Bangladesh ended the first day on 246-8, with Mushfiqur Rahim top scoring for the home side with a knock of 65 and Dale Steyn being the pick of the South African bowlers with figures of 3-30.

However, with just two days remaining and the possibility of more wet conditions, their efforts are likely to be in vain.
