South Africa tour of New Zealand: Team news
Ahead of the tour, South Africa made headlines by announcing a second team filled with unused players. The regular players are currently SA20, and the new team will be led by Neil Brand, who has yet to hold an international cap. The move led to widespread debate that Cricket South Africa should prioritize franchise cricket over Tests, a complicated dilemma given the sport’s finances.
Meanwhile, New Zealand have named a full-fledged squad led by Tim Southie. ICC Emerging Player of the Year 2023 Rachin Ravindra has been recalled. Kane Williamson has been called up to the squad.
