CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - South Africa have named a largely unchanged One-Day International squad for the three-match home series with Bangladesh on March 18-23, with only all-rounder Sisanda Magala missing out after he failed a fitness test.
Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Tuesday announced a 16-man Proteas squad to take on Bangladesh in an upcoming three-game ODI series.
Dean Elgar has urged his teammates to choose national duty in a series against Bangladesh over the upcoming Indian Premier Leageu (IPL) as it is a test of loyalty for them and they must prioritise their country. South Africa are set to play three one-dayers and two Tests against Bangladesh starting March 18, while the IPL is scheduled to be held from March 26 to May 29. The ODIs will be held on March 18, 20 and 23, followed by two Tests starting on March 31 and ending on April 12. According to 'ESPNcricinfo', Cricket South Africa has left it on the players to decide between the lucrative league and turning up for the country in the Bangladesh series. "The players need to give Cricket South Africa an indication of if they are keen to go to the IPL or if they are keen to play for the Test side. It's a bit of a tough one putting that in the players' box but this I guess, this is where you see where players' loyalty lies," Elgar said. "They mustn't forget that Test cricket or one-day cricket got them into the IPL and not the other way around."
Sarel Erwee has had to be patient, waiting for his opportunity to play Test cricket, but his 108 in the second Test against New Zealand in Christchurch this week means he is now set for an extended run at the top of the South African order.
Proteas captain Dean Elgar says Aiden Markram is "one knock away" from a return to form.
