The IPL-bound players will leave for India next week to join their respective franchises. Lockie Ferguson, who was picked up by Gujarat Titans, will join the squad this week while the IPL debutants like Devon Conway, Daryl Mitchell will also join the squad by March 15.
South African players to miss first match – However, the same isn’t the case with South African players. Eight IPL stars will miss the first match after being named in the ODI series against Bangladesh while they could miss further two weeks if CSA picks a full-strength squad for the two-match Test series.
But the BCCI is currently holding talks with CSA to come to a common ground. CSA may name a weaker squad made up of non-IPL players for the Test series.
