Sisanda Magala has been included in a 16-man Proteas squad for the three-match ODI series against England in Bloemfontein and Kimberley.

Magala earned the last of his three ODI caps in January 2022 before fitness issues ruled him out of selection. He has been in good form for the Sunrisers Eastern Cape in the SA20.

Marco Jansen is also back in the squad and will be hoping to add to his three ODI caps.

Temba Bavuma retains the captaincy, while there is no room for the red-hot Ryan Rickelton, Tristan Stubbs, Dewald Brevis and Tony de Zorzi.
