Bangladesh lost in a thrilling last-over battle

South Africa needed 8 runs to win in the last over. Nahida Akhtar came to bowl for Bangladesh. De Clarke made the equation easier by hitting a four off the first ball of this left-arm spinner. Clarke hit a six off the third ball, but the next ball was a dot, giving the Proteas a breathtaking victory.
