Proteas odi squad
SA secure whitewash despite light failure
The result gave the Proteas a 5-0 series victory over the hapless Sri Lankan tourists.
The Proteas selectors have rewarded fast Bowler Duanne Olivier for his excellent performances in the recently concluded three-Test match series against Pakistan with an ODI berth for the first two matches in the match series.
Proteas head coach Ottis Gibson says fast bowler Kagiso Rabada could be used sparingly during the two Test match series against Sri Lanka next month in an attempt to manage his workload ahead of the ICC Cricket World Cup in the United Kingdom later this year.
Rabada was given three demerit points by the International Cricket Council match referee Jeff Crowe, taking him past the tally of eight that triggers an automatic two-game suspension.
AB de Villiers and Chris Morris will return to the team after missing the Australia series last year.
