Squads
South Africa's AB de Villiers was originally named as the captain for the ODI series. However, he was unavailable for the first match due to getting a one-match ban for bowling a slow over-rate in the 2015 Cricket World Cup semi-final against New Zealand. South Africa's management decided to release him for the other two matches, so he can spend time with his family, with Hashim Amla taking over as captain.
