    Published on

    Left-arm seamer Marco Jansen has been included in the Proteas’ 17-man squad for the three-match ODI series against India.

    The 21-year-old made his Test debut in Centurion last week, taking 4-55 in India’s second innings.

    Anrich Nortje has been ruled out of the ODI series after not recovering sufficiently from his hip injury and is continuing with his rehabilitation.

    Wayne Parnell and Zubayr Hamza are retained from the Proteas squad for the Netherlands ODI series, while Dwaine Pretorius makes a welcome return in the all-rounder arsenal alongside Andile Phehlukwayo and Parnell.

    Proteas ODI squad: Temba Bavuma (captain, Lions), Keshav Maharaj (vice-captain, Dolphins), Quinton de Kock (wicketkeeper, Titans), Zubayr Hamza (Western Province), Marco Jansen (Warriors), Janneman Malan (Rocks), Sisanda Magala (Lions), Aiden Markram (Titans), David Miller (Dolphins), Lungi Ngidi (Titans), Wayne Parnell (Western Province), Andile Phehlukwayo (Dolphins), Dwaine Pretorius (Dragons), Kagiso Rabada (Lions), Tabraiz Shamsi (Titans), Rassie van der Dussen (Lions), Kyle Verreynne (Western Province).
