A fast-improving Bangladesh are confident of upsetting another of world cricket's powerhouses on home turf when they take on South Africa in a three-match ODI series starting on Friday. <\br>
Although Bangladesh suffered a 2-0 reverse in the recent Twenty20 series against the visitors, the game's one-time whipping boys have become a force to be reckoned with in the 50-over format and have not lost an ODI series at home since February last year.
After their making it to the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time in their history earlier this year, Bangladesh then trounced Pakistan 3-0 in April before following up with a 2-1 triumph over India last month.
Although India's consolation win marked the end of a record 10-match home winning streak, Bangladeshi opening batsman Tamim Iqbal said that confidence in the camp was high despite losing the T20s to the Proteas.
