Aiden Markram | South Africa stand-in captain: Really good performance, incredibly tough for the team to put four days of good performance here. The bowlers stepped up and some really good partnerships with the bat to help us get a good lead. Credit to Bangladesh as well, they batted well and put up a good total. It was a really good toss to lose, we would have batted as well. The bowlers bowled really well and did the job for us. It happens like that in the subcontinent I feel, you lose wickets consecutively. Bangladesh bowled well too. Some good things for us in the first innings as well as in the second innings as well. It's very pleasing, KG has been doing this since a really long time. For Kyle to come in and step up, it's great. A hunded for Verrynne is a special thing and he has batted well in the subcontinent conditions.

Kyle Verreynne | Player of the Match: It was the same thinking we were talking about in the last two months. Just backing my options and wanted to make sure I took the right options. That's what Wiaan and I looked to do. (On adjustiing to the conditions) It's my first Test in the subcontinent so a new challenge. But our preperation coming into this series was really good, it worked out for us in this morning. In the subcontinent, getting big partnerships is really important. Piedt batted really well at the end and getting to 300 as a team was important.

Najmul Hossain Shanto | Bangladesh captain: We lost as a team. First of all, we are not pointing out any individual things but we lost as a team. It's a big plus (on the comeback). We were 200 runs behind but Mehidy Hasan Miraz showed great character to bring us back. We haven't done that often in the past and that was a great thing. As a batting group we need to take responsibility against the new ball and as as a bowling group as well we need to show improvement. We need to put in a collective performance as a team in the next Test match.

SA’s successful run-chases in Tests in Asia (by targets)
205 vs Bangladesh, Mirpur, 2008
163 vs India, Mumbai WS, 2000
106 vs Bangladesh, Mirpur, 2024

- This is South Africa’s first Test win in the sub-continent since their 153-run win against Sri Lanka in Galle in 2014.

- Their last Test win in Bangladesh was in Chattogram in 2008 - by innings and 205 runs - in a game that featured a world-record opening stand of 415 between Graeme Smith and Neil McKenzie.

WTC scenario: With this win, South Africa have now jumped to the fourth position in the WTC 2023/25 points table with a PCT of 47.61%. If they win each of their remaining five Tests, they'll finish at 69.44% (assuming no point-deduction on slow over rates), which will confirm them a top-two finish. Four wins out of five will take them to 61.11%, still putting them in with a great chance, depending on other results featuring India, Australia and Sri Lanka.

Bangladesh put in a much-improved batting performance in their second essay but they were already playing
