Cape Town - The Proteas' national selection chief Andrew Hudson says Sri Lanka's first warm-up match in South Africa won't be against the SA "A" side, as was initially planned.

Hudson told the Volksblad newspaper that the tourists' scheduled first class match in Benoni won't be against a full-blown SA "A" side because the match starts on the same day as the 1-Day Cup final. (9 December)
"With two of our franchise teams in action on that day, we have decided to pick an invitational rather than an "A" team for the match," said Hudson.
The Proteas' three-Test series against Sri Lanka starts at SuperSport Park in Centurion on December 15.
