KG released from ODI squad─── 16:54 Tue, 18 Jan 2022
Proteas seam bowler Kagiso Rabada has been released from the team for the ODI series against India due to high workloads over a sustained period of time and the need for him to recover prior to the outbound Test series against New Zealand next month.
No replacement will be brought in for him as there is an extended squad in place in the Bio-Secure Environment (BSE), but George Linde has been retained from the Test team as an extra spin-bowling option for the series.
The first One-Day International of the series will be played on Wednesday at Boland Park in Paarl.
Proteas ODI squad vs India - Temba Bavuma (captain), Keshav Maharaj (vice-captain), Quinton de Kock (wicketkeeper), Zubayr Hamza, Marco Jansen, Janneman Malan, Sisanda Magala, Aiden Markram, David Miller, Lungi Ngidi, Wayne Parnell, Andile Phehlukwayo, Dwaine Pretorius, George Linde, Tabraiz Shamsi, Rassie van der Dussen, Kyle Verreynne.
