Rilee Rossouw looks ahead to the T20 World Cup after the Proteas’ second warm-up match was rained out on Wednesday.

South Africa’s second T20 World Cup warm-up match against Bangladesh in Brisbane was abandoned due to rain without a ball being bowled.

The Proteas will therefore go into their opening fixture against a qualifying team in Hobart next Monday having had just one hit-out in Australia, against New Zealand.

Openers Temba Bavuma and Quinton de Kock were both rested for that fixture, which the Proteas won by nine wickets.

The Proteas will also take on Bangladesh (October 27 in Sydney), India (October 30 in Perth), Pakistan (November 3 in Sydney) and another qualifying team (November 6 in Adelaide) in the Super 12 stage of the tournament.
