The Proteas have named Titans fast bowler Corbin Bosch in their 15-member squad for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy in Pakistan.
The 30-year-old, who has played one Test and one ODI for South Africa, comes in for the injured Anrich Nortje.
Cricket South Africa (CSA) added that Lions quickie Kwena Maphaka will travel with the squad as a reserve.
Bosch and Maphaka, along with batsman Tony de Zorzi, will depart for Karachi on Sunday to join the squad for the remainder of the tri-nation ODI series which serves as warm-up for the Champions Trophy.
