Paterson called up to Proteas ODI squad
Dane Paterson is the only new cap in the Standard Bank Proteas ODI squad for this month's ODI Series against Bangladesh.
Morne Morkel could not be considered because of injury.
"Dane did very well in the T20 International Series against England earlier this year, particularly when it came to death bowling," commented Cricket South Africa (CSA) National Selection Panel Convener Linda Zondi. "We now want to see if he can do a similar job in the 50 overs format.
"Faf du Plessis will lead the Proteas now that he has taken over the captaincy from AB de Villiers in the ODI format. This is the start of our campaign to begin preparing our squad for the 2019 ICC World Cup," Zondi concluded.
