Duminy set for Proteas return
Batsman JP Duminy is set to return after a shin injury in South Africa's second one-day international against Zimbabwe at Centurion.
Jacques Kallis, who has been troubled by discomfort in his side, may also feature on Tuesday as a specialist batsman only.
The Proteas are continuing their preparation for the forthcoming ODI series against England, and face those same opponents in two Twenty20 matches next weekend.
"JP has had a mild dose of shin splints," physiotherapist Brandon Jackson reported.
"We thought it advisable to rest him for a couple of days, and he is now clear to resume full activity."
Duminy had a net session this afternoon, while his team-mates were playing Zimbabwe in Benoni.
As for Kallis, Jackson added: "Jacques has been batting for a few days now without any problems.

"He bowled five light overs during the lunch break today. He came through that symptom free and should be ready for full activity by the weekend."
Fast bowler Wayne Parnell is still suffering with an ankle injury.
"He is probably still 10 days away from a return to full activity," said Jackson.
