The tour will mark the international comeback for Rilee Rossouw. Rossouw, the 32-year-old batter, played the last of his 51 international games in October 2016 during the T20 World Cup in India, and wasn't considered for selection since signing a Kolpak deal with Hampshire in 2017. More recently, he has returned to play in South Africa's domestic setup and was the leading run-scorer in the last season's provincial T20 tournament, while he is currently third on the batting chart at the Vitality Blast. Meanwhile, 21-year-old quick bowler Gerald Coetzee has received his maiden international call-up. Both Rossouw and Coetzee have been included only in the T20I squads.
