Injured De Zorzi: South Africa batter Tony de Zorzi and all-rounder Donovan Ferreira have been ruled out of the three-match T20I series against West Indies and the Men’s T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka due to injuries, said Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Thursday.

De Zorzi has not recovered from a right hamstring tear sustained during the ODI against India last month, while Ferreira fractured his left clavicle in an SA20 match between Joburg Super Kings and Pretoria Capitals on January 17.

Wicketkeeper-batter Ryan Rickelton and batting all-rounder Tristan Stubbs have been named as their replacements in the 15-man squad. CSA added that veteran left-handed batter David Miller will also miss the T20Is against the West Indies after suffering an adductor injury while playing for Paarl Royals, with his T20 World Cup participation subject to a fitness test.
