Chloe Tryon, Lara Goodall and Ayanda Hlubi are not part of any of the two squads (ODI and Test) announced by CSA for the series. The trio miss out due to injuries.  Tryon was part of South Africa’s T20I squad for the series against Sri Lanka and was also with the team during their previous one-off Test against Australia in February. CSA has not named the squad for the T20Is, which is expected to come a little later.  The squad features four uncapped players Annerie Dercksen, Mieke de Ridder, Eliz-Mari Marx (uncapped in Tests) and Nondumiso Shangase (uncapped in Tests).  Notably, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) named India’s squad for all three formats on Thursday. Jemimah Rodrigues and Pooja Vastrakar have been named in all three squads with their participation in the series subject to fitness.
