Pacer Anrich Nortje will return to international action after a ninth-month injury layoff while the uncapped duo of Ryan Rickelton and Ottniel Baartman was included in South Africa's T20 World Cup squad on Tuesday.
Aiden Markram will lead the side in what will be his first World Cup assignment since being named T20I captain. Wicketkeeper-batter Rickelton and pacer Baartman have been rewarded for their stellar run in this year's SA20.
Rickelton finished as the leading run-scorer in the second edition of SA20 with 530 runs at an average of 58.88 for MI Cape Town, while Baartman took 18 wickets in eight matches for defending champions Sunrisers Eastern Cape.
