South Africa drop Stubbs and hand Rickelton gloves for Gqeberha Test

South Africa replaced Tristan Stubbs with Matthew Breetzke and confirmed Ryan Rickelton as wicketkeeper for the second Test against Australia in Gqeberha starting Sunday. Stubbs was the only change from the squad that lost the first Test in Durban by 214 runs.

Breetzke earned the call-up on the back of his recent ODI form, including a century against Australia last month. Head coach Shukri Conrad said Rickelton's move behind the stumps creates decisions over whether he continues to open or moves down the order.

Kagiso Rabada is expected to return after missing the Durban Test with a hamstring niggle. Heavy rain is forecast for the opening day at St George's Park.
