Sekhukhune has sustained a groin injury while Kapp returns home for family reasons.

The 23-year old Sekhukhune experienced discomfort during the warm-ups ahead of the third and final One-Day International (ODI) against England on Monday and after being assessed by the team’s medical staff, it was agreed she will be sent home to begin her rehabilitation.

Meanwhile, star all-rounder Kapp has requested to travel back home to Gqeberha to be close to her family during this trying time.

Top-order batter Tazmin Brits has been called up to the group, who are currently in the United Kingdom, as a replacement to make up the 15-player squad that will take on the hosts between 21 – 25 July.

A Commonwealth Games squad update will be communicated in due course in collaboration with Team South Africa and the South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC).
