Skipper Dané van Niekerk and all-rounder Marizanne Kapp were included in the 2017 ICC Women’s ODI team of the year and will be key to the Proteas’ chances of a win against the reigning world champions.

South Africa convenor of selectors Clinton du Preez said: “We’re paying a lot of attention to the 2021 World Cup preparations. The IWC programme right now gives us enough time to have a look at combinations, have a look at players coming in, especially players who have just made their debuts recently.

“It’s a great opportunity for them to blend into the squad and to also be a part of the joys of being a national player. We are confident that the England tour will see some of the most exciting cricket from this team yet.”

Proteas squad: Dané van Niekerk (captain, Eastern Province), Lizelle Lee (North West), Chloe Tryon (KwaZulu-Natal Dolphins), Mignon du Preez (Northerns), Marizanne Kapp (Eastern Province), Shabnim Ismail (Gauteng), Ayabonga Khaka (Gauteng), Masabata Klaas (North West), Raisibe Ntozakhe (Gauteng), Suné Luus (Northerns), Laura Wolvaardt (Western Province), Andrie Steyn (Western Province), Zintle Mali (Border), Stacey Lackay (Western Province), Tazmin Brits (North West).

Entry to the match is included in all 2018 Memberships and an option for Six Pack holders.
