Ahead of the T20 WC due to start in
India next month, the South African
management decided to rest Quinton
de Kock for the two-match Twenty20
International series against England
due to a knee injury he sustained
earlier in the Test series. He, however,
will be available for selection when
Australia tour South Africa early in
March for a three-match T20I stint.

"Quinton has been playing a lot of
cricket since the injury to his knee
before the third Test match against
England," Mohammed Moosajee, South
Africa's team manager, said on Friday
(February 19).
"Even though he was given the all
clear by the medical team at the time,
we feel it is best to give the knee some
rest as he is still slightly symptomatic.
We need to keep in mind the upcoming
T20 WC as well as the short
turnaround of matches leading up to
the tournament. Read more: De Kock rested for England T20Is - Cricbuzz
