SuperSport Park Centurion ODI records: List of batting and bowling stats and records in Centurion ODIs

SuperSport Park Centurion ODI records and stats: SuperSport Park will be hosting an ODI after 11 months tomorrow.

Three ODIs and two Test matches of Bangladesh’s tour of South Africa 2022 will be the last leg of this South African summer. Having defeated India across formats, South Africa have all the reasons to believe that they can emerge as the victorious side in the imminent ODI series.

SuperSport Park, Centurion, will be hosting the first ODI on Friday. While this venue has hosted international cricket across formats this summer, local fans would be relieved at the prospect of a day-night ODI series. It is noteworthy all the three ODIs played against India earlier this year were day contests.

South Africa, who have been part of 43 out of the 57 ODIs which Centurion has hosted in the last three decades, have won 26 and lost 15. Bangladesh, on the other hand, have never played an ODI at the SuperSport Park. Out of the nine ODIs that they’ve played in South Africa, Bangladesh have never won a match here.
