In the first innings, where the Proteas were batting, a mistake by the Bangladesh wicketkeeper led to the opposition getting five penalty runs. In the last delivery of the 11th over, when Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan was about to deliver the ball, keeper Nurul Hasan moved to his left before the ball was bowled, which as per the rules of the game, is not permitted.
