AP - South Africa have added paceman Marchant de Lange to their squad for five one-day internationals against England.
The first ODI is in Bloemfontein on Wednesday with de Lange bolsetering the Proteas' bowling stocks with Dale Steyn, Vernon Philander and Kyle Abbott all injured.
Steyn missed most of the Test series, which England won 2-1, with a shoulder injury while Philander has not played since the early stages of the tour to India in November when he tore ankle ligaments.
A hamstring strain meant Abbott was unable to bowl during the final Test against England in Pretoria.
"Marchant gives us more options with our fast bowlers because there is no Steyn, no Philander, no Kyle Abbott," said coach Russell Domingo.
"We need to manage the workloads of (Morne) Morkel and (Kagiso) Rabada who have played a lot. We need to broaden our fast bowling base for this series."
