South Africa will play a couple of Test matches at Dareen Sammy International Stadium and a 5-match T20I series at National Cricket Stadium in a bio-secure bubble.
Off-spinner Prenelan Subrayen has received his maiden call-up in the Test squad. Subrayen has consistently performed well in the domestic tournaments and will be a handy addition to the spin department lending support to Keshav Maharaj.
Lizaad Williams is included in the squad for the first time in the longest format after impressing the selectors in the white-ball formats against Pakistan in the recently concluded series.

Ab de Villiers, Faf du Plessis Miss Out On The T20I And ODI Squads
Graeme Smith (CSA) managing director had earlier hinted that Ab de Villiers, Chris Morris, Imran Tahir and Faf du Plessis will get their chances to impress the selectors during the West Indies series.
But in a shocking move, neither of the four players are included in the squad. After hanging up his boots in Test cricket, former captain du Plessis wanted to prioritize in doing well in white-ball formats, but he too didn’t find a place.
