Kwena Maphaka Included After Gerald Coetzee Ruled Out Of South Africa's Second Test Against Sri Lanka And Pakistan Tour
Uncapped Kwena Maphaka has been added to South Africa's Test squad after fast-bowler Gerald Coetzee has been ruled out of the second Test against Sri Lanka and the upcoming all-format series against Pakistan due to a groin injury. South Africa moved up to second place in the World Test Championship table, only behind India, after their emphatic 233 win over Sri Lanka at the Kingsmead Cricket Stadium on Saturday.

Jansen became the first left-arm seamer to take a ten-wicket haul for South Africa since their re-admission into cricket in 1991.
