Bangladesh will file an official complaint against South Africa's "deplorable" sledging during the Durban Test after the umpires ignored their on-field objections, according to the visitors.
The BCB intends to file a complaint to the ICC about both the sledging and the overall umpiring during the game, according to ESPNcricinfo.
Bangladesh have already filed one complaint - about the umpiring - during the ODI series, but want to take up some other issues that cropped up during the Test, which Bangladesh lost on the final day by 220 runs after collapsing for 53 in their second innings.

"We have already lodged one complaint about the umpiring after the ODI series. The match referee had initially misbehaved with our manager Nafees Iqbal but then softened when we gave him a written complaint. We will lodge another official complaint about this Test match" said BCB cricket operations chief Jalal Yunus.
Mominul Haque, Bangladesh's captain, joined Yunus, team director Khaled Mahmud, selector Habibul Bashar, and Shakib Al Hasan have also expressed their annoyance about the umpiring.
