First Test, day one: Zimbabwe v Proteas
Welcome to News24's coverage of the first Test between the Proteas and Zimbabwe at Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo. The Proteas are in red-ball action for the first time since winning the World Test Championship at Lord's earlier this month as they resume Test ties with African neighbours Zimbabwe. Proteas coach Shukri Conrad has selected an exciting team with a decided feel of 'I want to see something' about it. Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Dewald Brevis and Codi Yusuf make their Test debuts, with the heavier artillery in regular skipper Temba Bavuma, Aiden Markram, Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen among those absent for this outing due to either injury (Bavuma has a hamstring injury) or rest and recuperation. Seamer Lungi Ngidi will be available for the second Test. Long-time servant of Proteas cricket, Keshav Maharaj, makes his Test captaincy debut.
