JOHANNESBURG — Jacques Kallis has been omitted from South Africa's one-day squad for the series against England so he can rest before the World Twenty20, Cricket South Africa said Wednesday. The 36-year-old Kallis, a veteran of 321 ODIs, was replaced in the 15-man squad by new cap Dean Elgar. The Proteas play five matches against England in August and September, and the World Twenty20 begins in Sri Lanka on Sept. 18. Elgar, the 25-year-old batting all-rounder, has played in 85 List A matches and scored 2,593 runs. Imran Tahir has also been called up, and there was a recall for all-rounder Ryan McLaren. — Reuters
