The South Africa A side was announced on Monday.

Kyle Verreynne and Reeza Hendricks, who have been fan favourites for Test selection, now have a chance to showcase their talent in the longest format.

Cobras speedster Nandre Burger and Glenton Stuurman also adds some freshness to the squad.

“The selection of the A side to play England in a three-day tour match is confirmation of our policy to make this team our official South African 2^ndXI and it has a good mix of experienced and young players with Pite van Biljon, Kyle Verreynne, Glenton Stuurman and Nandre Burger all being chosen at this level for the first time,” said Linda Zondi.

“Van Biljon and Verreynne are both in the top six on the four-day batting averages while we have gone for a young fast bowling attack as we look to develop our depth in this area.”
