Proteas paceman Nortje out of second West Indies Test

South Africa can be with out fast Anrich Nortje for the second and remaining Test in opposition to West Indies at The Wanderers after he picked up a gentle groin damage and is to be rested.

Nortje took a match tally of 6-84 in South Africa’s 87-run first Test victory in Pretoria, together with first innings figures of 5-36 as he swung the match within the dwelling facet’s favour with some fearsome quick bowling.

South Africa have opted to not name up a alternative for the competition which begins on Wednesday in Johannesburg. It will doubtless imply a return for both of their spin choices Keshav Maharaj and Simon Harmer, who had been omitted within the first recreation.

SOUTH AFRICA SQUAD: Temba Bavuma (capt), Gerald Coetzee, Tony de Zorzi, Dean Elgar, Simon Harmer, Marco Jansen, Heinrich Klaasen, Keshav Maharaj, Aiden Markram, Wiaan Mulder, Senuran Muthusamy, Keegan Petersen, Kagiso Rabada, Ryan Rickelton.
