Back in the New Zealand tour in March last year, as a back-up wicketkeeper, he was not able to play any match in the squad. South Africa's first division championship has won 297 runs at an average of 48.66, in the 2017-18 Sunflil series, for the Titans. In ODIs and Centurion in Johannesburg against India, he presented match-winning innings in T20.
Linda Zondi, convenor of the CSA national selector panel, said, "Clausen proved himself very well in the white ball match for Proteas. Now he has the opportunity to prove himself in a five-day format. In this season, Sanfel has almost 50 batting averages, including two centuries in four days cricket. We also want his success as a back-up wicket-keeper of the Coke. "
Meanwhile, the 20-year-old Mullard, who was in Test squad against Bangladesh at the end of September, did not get the chance to play matches. After Otis Gibson was appointed as South African coach, Muller expressed his satisfaction. His batting average was 61.66 for Lions in the Sanfayal series. In the nine innings he scored 370 runs.Last year, he played in one-day squad against Bangladesh. Zondi said that we have put Mullard in the team to strengthen the all-round division against the top-ranked opponent. He is a batting all-rounder. Mulder's affiliation depends on what will be the balance of our original XI.
Squad: Faf du Plessis (captain), Hashim Amla, Tamba Bawuma, Quinton de Kock, Thuns De Bruyne, AB de Villiers, Dean Elgar, Henriques Clasen, Kesive Maharoof, Aiden Marcrum, Morne Morkel, Wean Muller, Lungeysani Enigidi, Vernon Philander And Kagiso Routada.
