Beuran Hendricks gets his 1st call up to the Proteas squad, due to his record breaking Ram Slam T20 campaign where he took 28 wickets.
Albie Morkel also earned his way back into the squad for the first time since his last appearance in 2012.
Another player who showed off his batting skills during the Ram Slam T20 was Sunfoil Dolphins batsman David Miller. He was the campaigns highest run-scorer with 383 runs and a high score of 93 runs not out.
Quinton de Kock who became only the fifth batsman to score three consecutive ODI centuries was also included in the squad. Especially since he scored them against India.
The Proteas will be led by skipper Faf du Plessis and maybe de Kock will keep wicket instead of de Villiers. The Proteas attack will be headed by Dale Steyn who will be supported by Tsotsobe, Hendricks, Parnell and the Morkel brothers.
It looks like a pretty good team. Hopefully they can leave Bangladesh with something else instead of the dreaded "chockers" tag.
