Cricket South Africa (CSA) has announced the squad of 17 that will take on India in the three-match, Betway One-Day International (ODI) series in the Western Cape from 19 to 23 January.
The left-arm seamer, Marco Jansen has received his first call-up to the One-Day squad, while Anrich Nortje has been ruled out of the series after not recovering sufficiently from his hip injury and is continuing with his rehabilitation.
Wayne Parnell and Zubayr Hamza are retained from the Netherlands ODI tour while Dwaine Pretorius makes a welcome return in the all-rounder arsenal alongside Andile Phehlukwayo and Parnell.
CSA Convenor of Selectors, Victor Mpitsang said:
“This is a very exciting group and the Selection Panel and I are eager to see what they will produce.
“For many of our players, it does not get bigger than playing against this powerhouse Indian team and this will be the biggest series of their young lives so far.
“We are looking forward to seeing what they bring to the table and wish Temba (Bavuma) and Mark (Boucher) all the best for the series.”
