Duminy released from squad for rest of series*
JP Duminy has been released from South Africa's squad for the last two Tests in England. Duminy had been dropped for the second Test at Trent Bridge, which South Africa won by 340 runs to square the series, after managing only 17 runs across two innings in the first at Lord's. South Africa have opted to keep Aiden Markram as batting cover instead.
Markram, the 2014 Under-19 World Cup winning captain and Titans opener, was part of the South Africa A squad that toured England earlier in the summer and initially included in the squad to cover for the absence of Faf du Plessis, who missed the first Test following the birth of his daughter.
