Kapp & kaka rested for the t20's. Tryon's flight back from the bbl got delayed so couldn't get to SA in time.
Highly unlikely. Has emigrated to Aus. Players need to play SA domestic cricket to be eligible. There is also bad blood between her & CSA.

CSA APPOINTS HEAD COACH OF THE PROTEAS WOMEN TEAM
JOHANNESBURG: Cricket South Africa (CSA) has appointed Mandla Mashimbyi as the new Head Coach of the Proteas Women’s Team.
With over a decade of coaching experience at domestic and international levels, Mashimbyi has a track record of success, including multiple championship wins with the Momentum Multiply Titans including stints as Bowling Coach and Assistant with the Proteas Men’s Team and was recently Fast Bowling Coach for SA20’s Paarl Royals.
Mashimbyi has played professional cricket for the Titans, Knights, and the Griquas. His playing career was brought to an early end in 2010 due to persistent knee injuries. As a pace bowler, he claimed 103 wickets in 39 first-class matches representing the Titans and Northerns, while also maintaining a batting average of over 20. He featured in 44 One-Day games during his time in Centurion, playing a key role in Northerns' triumphs in the three-day and one-day competitions during the 2005/06 season and captaining the side to victory in the CSA One-Day Challenge in 2009/10.
The Phalaborwa-born coach’s impressive resume is complemented by a strong set of leadership, communication, and motivational skills. His process-oriented approach, combined with his commitment to player and team development, positions him to create a winning culture within the Proteas Women’s Team.
In his new role, Mandla will focus on preparing the team for international competitions, implementing high-performance strategies, driving CSA’s transformation goals, and building a culture of excellence and pride.
Director of National Teams and High Performance, Enoch Nkwe, said: “CSA is extremely proud to welcome someone of Mandla's stature and expertise. We are confident that he will excel in this role, bringing a wealth of experience and a fresh perspective.
“Mandla has our full support in his efforts, and we look forward to the growth and achievements that the Proteas Women’s Team will experience under his leadership.”
The newly appointed Proteas Women Head Coach shared his sentiments: “It is with a profound sense of honour and humility that I accept the appointment as the Proteas Women's Coach. I am fully cognizant of the significant responsibilities and expectations associated with this esteemed position.
“I am profoundly grateful for the exceptional opportunity bestowed upon me by Titans Cricket throughout my tenure as a coach. Their unwavering support and unwavering backing over the past eleven years have been instrumental in my professional growth and development.
“At this juncture, I am deeply appreciative of the opportunity to contribute my expertise and knowledge to the Proteas Women continued success and to elevate their standing as a formidable force in world cricket.”
A media opportunity will be held at CSA HQ on Tuesday, 03 December at 11h00 with the head coach and Director of National Teams and High Performance, Enoch Nkwe.
