Controversial cricketer Makhaya Ntini, who successful appealed a rape convicted, will represent South Africa again after being included in the one-day squad for India this month, announced on Sunday night. The Border star became the first black South African to represent the country, but has been left out of the national side after being convicted of rape, which was overturned on appeal last year. He will play in the Sharjah stretch only. Hansie Cronje will lead the one-day squad, which includes Shaun Pollock as his deputy — after the two-Test series. Unluckily Paul Adams, still recovering from a broken finger, was not named.
The squad:
Hansie Cronje (capt), shaun Pollock, Gary Kirsten, Jacques Kallis, Pieter Strydom, Dale Benkenstein, Lance Klusener, Neil McKensie, Nicky Boje, Mark Boucher, Steve Ellworthy, Derek Crookes, Mornantau Hayward, Henry Williams and Makhaya Ntini (Sharjah only).
