Heinrich Klaasen will lead the South Africa A teams that will take on Zimbabwe XI in eight matches from 25 April to 10 May. It will be powerhouse teams that will take on the hosts in the three One-Dayers and five T20s in Harare.
The squads are bursting with South Africa’s brightest domestic provincial stars such as Khaya Zondo, Theunis de Bruyn, Prenelan Subrayen, Tony de Zorzi, Gerald Coetzee and Tristan Stubbs, with the biggest drawcard being several members and regulars of the Proteas team like Andile Phehlukwayo, Reeza Hendricks, Bjorn Fortuin, Lutho Sipamla, Lizaad Williams and Ryan Rickelton.
CSA Convenor of Selectors, Victor Mpitsang said:
“It’s going to be an exciting few weeks in Harare, the National Selection Panel and I selected our best up and coming players and balanced them with the experience of some of our Proteas to show just how seriously we take this tour.
“The CSA High Performance program is an important part of the organisation’s pipeline and game time is vital for this program to succeed.
“We are really looking forward to watching these matches and seeing what this team of talented players under the leadership of Heinrich Klaasen will bring to the table.
“On behalf of the Selectors, I would like to wish Heinrich (Klaasen) and coach, Malibongwe Maketa, all the best for the tour.”
