Johannesburg - Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Friday named the South African squad to take part in the annual Hong Kong Sixes’ tournament.
The tournament takes place at the Kowloon Cricket Club from October 28-30.
“We have followed the standard procedure of getting each franchise to nominate a player so that we do not disadvantage franchises from their domestic competition requirements,” commented CSA selection convener Andrew Hudson.
“This is a very important tournament for players who have been identified as having the potential to represent the Proteas. We always put an emphasis on young talent and we look forward to the performances of the likes of Mangaliso Mosehle, 21, a former SA Under-19 Cricketer of the Year, and Matthew Hulett, 20, this year’s CSA amateur one-day Player of the Year.
“There is also a good balance of experience provided by Lyall Meyer and Dillon du Preez.
“We are confident this squad can bring home some prestigious silverware.”

Richard Cameron (Highveld Lions), Dillon du Preez (Knights), Matthew Hulett (Dolphins), Lyall Meyer (Warriors), Mangaliso Mosehle (Titans), Aubrey Swanepoel (Griquas), Lenert van Wyk (Cape Cobras)
