South Africa has named its squad for the T20I series against India at home.
Given the caliber of the opposition involved, Cricket South Africa has decided to recall Marco Jansen and Gerald Coetzee following a conditioning break, Jansen’s last international outing was at the T20 World Cup in June, while Coetzee featured against the West Indies in May.
The Proteas stalwarts Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, and Keshav Maharaj have made their way back into the squad after missing out on the recent white-ball series in the UAE.
Allrounders Mihlali Mpongwana and Andile Simelane have earned their maiden call-ups, adding depth to South Africa’s all-rounder options.
Tabraiz Shamsi and Anrich Nortje have not been picked after walking away from a national contract offer while Quinton de Kock has also chosen not to return for the series.
India has already named its squad for the 4-match series beginning on November 8th. The contest will be the first time these two have squared off since the final of the T20 World Cup.
