Frylinck, Mulder earn Proteas call-ups

Cape Town - Wayne Parnell has been ruled out of the remainder of the Proteas' ODI series against Bangladesh through injury.

His place for the remainder of the series will be taken by 19-year-old Lions all-rounder Wiaan Mulder.

Robbie Frylinck, meanwhile, has been called up to the national side for the two-match T20 series against the Tigers that will be played next week. 

"The selection of Robbie provides another opportunity to explore our depth in the important all-rounder position," commented CSA national selection panel convener Linda Zondi.

"Apart from his bowling strengths he has a proven record as a finisher with the bat." 

Zondi also explained the rationale behind the decision to rest Imran Tahir for the T20s.

"Imran remains our first-choice spinner in both the limited overs formats but we also need to develop depth in this important area which is why we have given further opportunities to Shamsi and Phangiso," he said. 

Faf du Plessis resumes the T20 captaincy after missing the series in England while the selectors have also decided to rest Kagiso Rabada who has been playing non-stop cricket for the Proteas for an extended period of time.

The second ODI against Bangladesh is set to take place in Paarl on Wednesday from 10:00.
