SRH, LSG Stars Return to the Setup As South Africa Announces Squad for England Tour

South Africa have announced their squad for the white-ball tour against England, which begins on September 2.

SRH and LSG Stars Return as Marco Jansen and David Miller Make Comebacks

Marco Jansen is back in the T20I squad after recovering from thumb surgery that ruled him out since the World Test Championship final in June. Seamer Lizaad Williams also makes a return after being sidelined with a knee injury since October 2024.

David Miller rejoins the squad after missing the Australia series due to franchise commitments. He is currently playing for Northern Superchargers in The Hundred and will link up with the national team once the competition ends.

Keshav Maharaj Recalled to the T20I Squad

Keshav Maharaj has been recalled to South Africa’s T20I squad after missing the last two series. The No.1 ranked ODI spinner returns alongside Senuran Muthusamy for the England tour.

Rassie van der Dussen, left-arm spinner George Linde, and legspinner Nqaba Peter, who were part of the Australia T20I series, have not been picked. Offspinner Prenelan Subrayen, who was reported for a suspect bowling action and will undergo testing in Brisbane, is also missing from the squad.

Left-arm seamer Kwena Maphaka has been kept in the ODI squad as cover for Kagiso Rabada, who is recovering from an ankle injury. Rabada will be assessed in England and is expected to be fit for the T20Is.

South Africa are currently playing a three-match ODI series in Australia, having already won the first two games to take the series lead. With this, they have now beaten Australia in five consecutive ODI series.
