On Friday, Cricket South Africa named their ODI and T20I squads for the upcoming India series, and largely, the core of the side has been retained. As for changes, pacer Anrich Nortje has been brought into the T20I setup after the World Cup final last year. He has been out of the loop given recurring stress fractures, but then is on a comeback spree, while playing for Dolphins in T20 challenge.

Aiden Markram to lead in T20Is

In the ODI squad, Temba Bavuma would lead the charge, while Aiden Markram would lead in the T20 format. The return of Quinton de Kock also meant, that Ryan Rickelton did not get picked. The former had scored a century in the ODIs vs Pakistan recently.
