South Africa Team Preview & Playing Squads
Anrich Nortje, one of South Africa’s top bowlers across all formats, will be out after complaining of a minor groin complaint during the First Test in Centurion. Tony de Zorzi and Gerald Coetzee, whom both made their Test debuts in the First Test, will continue to play in this match.
On Day 1, the opening duo of right-handed Aiden Markram and left-handed Dean Elgar was too much for the West Indies, putting up 141 for the first wicket. The openers would be essential to South Africa’s hopes once more in this game, as Markram went on to score 115 before hitting 47 in the second innings.
Anrich Nortje stood out with 5-36 in the first innings of South Africa’s fast bowling assault in Centurion, and Kagiso Rabada got 6-50 in the second. Gerald Coetzee and Marco Jansen will both appreciate the surroundings in Johannesburg.
