Dewald Brevis has been named in a 15-man South Africa A squad for an upcoming tour to Sri Lanka.

The SA A team will face Sri Lanka A in three one-day and two four-day matches in June.

Tony de Zorzi will captain the side under Test head coach Shukri Conrad.

The squad is strengthened by several Proteas players, including Keegan Petersen, Kyle Verreynne, Gerald Coetzee, and Tristan Stubbs. The tour also marks the return of Zubayr Hamza to the national setup.

The squad includes emerging domestic players such as Brevis and Warriors batting duo Jordan Hermann and Matthew Breetzke.

“The squad reflects the next crop of players that are emerging from our pipeline. We also rewarded those who have performed for their respective domestic teams this past summer,” said Conrad.

“The tour will provide the opportunity for those players, together with the younger Proteas, to put their skills to the test in highly competitive, international conditions.

“It will also serve to strengthen the batting depth in the red-ball department, as we build towards the Test series against India later this year.”

The squad will depart for Sri Lanka on May 31.
