Both teams are doing a lap of honour at Kimberley thanking the crowds.
Time for the presentations.
Player of the Match: Ayanda Hlubi.
Ayanda Hlubi (Player of the Match): "First of all, thanks to the coaches for the opportunity that they gave me. I was nervous and great out there. I just stuck to my strengths. After the first ball, everything was cool. I just stuck to my stock balls and bowled basics level. That's what I did. Just stick to basics and keep the nerves out."
Player of the Series: Shorna Akter.
Shorna Akter(Player of the series)- "It feels good. I thank the almighty for giving me the opportunity. I thank a lot to the coaching staff and the team management.
I am feeling good to see that there are so many of our supporter here. Their unconditional support made me very happy."

Nigar Sultana (Bangladesh Women Captain): "Yes, obviously. The thing is we did not bat well and that cost us. We will take the positives into the ODI series. We lost wickets and lacked partnerships and in the first game we had partnerships but today it was missing and that's why we lost the game. The positives for us has been the way we batted in the first game was great to see. I also want to compliment the team and the bowling that we have done throughout. These are the positives that we will take into the ODI series starting soon."
Laura Wolvaardt(South Africa Women captain)- "we were disappointed with the start of the series. I appreciate Bangladesh for playing beautifully in the first game. Our girls came back really well.
There was some extra bounce at the one end of the pitch and our bowlers exploited it well. I want to make special mention to Ayanda.
Ayanda grabbed the opportunity with both hands and it feels really good to see that the young guys are stepping up and performing well, absorbing the pressure.
Today, I wanted to take the game forward to the deep without playing a bad shot and I hope that I can continue the momentum forward to the upcoming ODI series also."
