Proteas Men’s head coach Shukri Conrad announced full-strength squads for the upcoming white-ball tour against Australia, starting on 10 August.
Conrad – great to have senior players back
Aiden Markram and Temba Bavuma return to lead the Proteas in the three-match T20 International (T20I) series from 10 - 16 August, followed by a three-match One-Day International (ODI) series from 19 - 24 August. The matches will be played across Darwin, Cairns and Mackay.
It’s great to have our senior players back in the mix after their rest following the WTC Final. Their experience and quality add real value to the group as we continue to build a strong core in both formats. Every series from here on plays a part in shaping our squads for next year’s T20 World Cup and the 50-over World Cup at home in 2027. Touring Australia is never easy. We know their conditions and intensity will test us in every department, and that’s exactly the kind of challenge we’re after.
Subrayen, Brevis and Pretorius included
Hollywoodbets Dolphins off-spinner Prenelan Subrayen, who recently made his Test debut against Zimbabwe, has earned his maiden call-up to the T20I and ODI squads while Momentum Multiply Titans batters Dewald Brevis and Lhuan-dré Pretorius have been named in the ODI squad, with Pretorius receiving his first call-up to the 50-over setup.
Brevis, who was part of the ODI squad for the home series against Australia in 2023, is yet to make his debut.
All three recently had outstanding performances during the tour of Zimbabwe and have been rewarded for their performances.
