Kemp's World Twenty20 Hopes Get Boost

Johannesburg: Cricket South Africa (CSA) has trimmed the initial squad of 30 for the World Twenty20 2010 to be played in the Caribbean next month to 18, with the final squad of 15 to be announced on March 30.

Juan Theron, who helped the Warriors to the domestic Pro20 title, is the only uncapped player in the reduced World Twenty20 squad, which also includes Justin Kemp and Vernon Philander.

Kemp and Philander are part of the Cape Cobras side, and have not played internationally since the 2007 tour of Pakistan and the 2008 tour of England respectively. Kemp most recently featured for the Chennai Super Kings in their opening match of the IPL's third season against Deccan Chargers.

There is also a change in the captaincy of the South Africa A squad with Thami Tsolekile being recognised for his leadership that took the Lions to the final of the Pro20.

Squad: Graeme Smith (capt), Jacques Kallis (vice-capt), Loots Bosman, Johan Botha, Mark Boucher (wk), AB de Villiers, JP Duminy, Herschelle Gibbs, Justin Kemp, Charl Langeveldt, Ryan McLaren, Albie Morkel, Morne Morkel, Wayne Parnell, Vernon Philander, Dale Steyn, Juan Theron, Roelof van der Merwe.
