Fortuin to captain Proteas in Namibia as Jansen, Bosch get call-ups
The SA senior men's cricket team will play in a T20 tri-series and ODI series in Namibia.
Bjorn Fortuin, the experienced Lions spinner, will lead the South African Proteas in their upcoming T20 and ODI series tours of Namibia. The teams will face each other in three matches each, starting in Windhoek. Fortuin is accompanied by a 15-man squad, including new faces Duan Jansen and Eathan Bosch, who have earned their first national call-ups.
Jansen, who recently guided the Titans to the 50-over title, and Bosch, a recent T20 player in The Hundred, have both impressed domestically. ODI newcomers Connor Esterhuizen, Jordan Hermann, and Nqobani Mokoena will also take part in the series. The Proteas coach, Shukri Conrad, stated that they selected one squad for both series, as they felt confident in the players' abilities.
A SA A team will also host Bangladesh A in a four-day and a one-day series, with Marques Ackerman named as their respective captains.
