It was a dream come true for JP Duminy, when he was chosen ahead of the inform batsman Ashwell Prince. Prince who has an average of 75 in the series against England missed the Australian tour due to a broken thumb. Duminy who replaced prince in the Australian series, played an important part in South Africa’s 2-1 victory over the world no 1 team.
Mike Procter said it was a "difficult decision" to leave out Prince."We are in the fortunate position of having seven world-class batsmen competing for six positions. It is a very healthy position for South African cricket," said Procter. As a surprise left arm swing bowler Lonwabo Tsotsobe has been selected as the twelfth man. Prince, Pieterson and Zondeki where dropped from the previous squad.
The injury of Mark Boucher is the major concern. If he does not recover then AB De Villiers can be seen behind the wicket. Smith was declared fit to play for the Cobras against the Dolphins. Smith is very focused to play well and ensure them a semifinal seat. His return has made the South African side much stronger than before.
