Afghanistan after making it to the semi-finals for the first time in T20 World Cup history are the hot property right now. New Zealand were scheduled to play a Test match for the first time against them but the weather and conditions in Greater Noida had other ideas. Now, Afghanistan are in the UAE for a three-match ODI series against South Africa, who have decided to rest their first-choice players and test their bench strength keeping the Champions Trophy in mind and with the aim to build a bigger pool of white-ball players.

The likes of Keshav Maharaj, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Anrich Nortje and Kagiso Rabada among others have been rested while Nqaba Peter, Andile Simelane, Jason Smith and Tristan Stubbs have been included. South Africa also play two T20Is and three ODIs against Ireland in Abu Dhabi and with the regulars expected to return to the fold after the UAE tour, the Proteas will hope get a few names they can target to be the future of the side, especially in white-ball cricket.
