Batters Dewald Brevis and Lhuan-dre Pretorius have been included in South Africa’s Twenty20 and One Day International squads for their white ball tour of Australia next month, as off-spinner Prenelan Subrayen earns a maiden limited overs call-up.
South Africa play their hosts in three T20 matches between August 10-16 before a three-game ODI series from August 19-24.
Subrayen, 31, recently made his test debut in Zimbabwe, as did Brevis, 22, and Pretorius, 19. All three players have been included in both limited overs squads.
Having rested several regulars for the tri-series tournament in Zimbabwe this month that also includes New Zealand, South Africa have recalled Aiden Markram, Kagiso Rabada, Ryan Rickelton and Tristan Stubbs.
Key all-rounder Marco Jansen misses out on the tour through injury.
Markram will captain the T20 side, and Temba Bavuma will lead the ODI team.
South Africa T20 squad:
Aiden Markram (captain), Corbin Bosch, Dewald Brevis, Nandre Burger, George Linde, Kwena Maphaka, Senuran Muthusamy, Lungi Ngidi, Nqaba Peter, Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Kagiso Rabada, Ryan Rickelton, Tristan Stubbs, Prenelan Subrayen and Rassie van der Dussen.
