SA pick Brevis, Pretorius for Australia tour

JOHANNESBURG: Batters Dewald Brevis and Lhuan-dre Pretorius have been included in South Africas T20 and ODI squads for their tour of Australia next month, as off-spinner Prenelan Subrayen earns a maiden limited-overs call-up.

South Africa play Australia in three T20s between Aug 10-16 before a three-game ODI series from Aug 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 T20 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.

Squads:

T20: 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, Rassie van der Dussen.
