South Africa have recalled leading wicket-taker Shaun Pollock for the first Test against the BLACKCAPS in Johannesburg next Thursday.
The 107-Test veteran was omitted from the recent Proteas' tour of Pakistan.
But Pollock, 34, has been named in the 12-man squad ahead of the Wanderers match, where he will look to add to his 416 Test career wickets.
South Africa: Herschelle Gibbs, Graeme Smith, Hashim Amla, Jacques Kallis, Ashwell Prince, AB de Villiers, Mark Boucher, Andre Nel, Paul Harris, Dale Steyn, Makhaya Ntini, Shaun Pollock.
