South Africa pulled off another thumping win over Bangladesh, this time by 200 runs, to complete a 3-0 one-day series sweep on Sunday to go with the 2-0 victory in the Tests.

Captain Faf du Plessis led the South African batting effort with 91, and was denied a century when he sustained a lower back injury while pushing for a second run. He was helped off the field but his absence didn't hamper South Africa. Dane Paterson took 3-44 in Bangladesh's reply and only Shakib Al Hasan, with a fighting 63, passed 50 for Bangladesh.
