South Africa have resisted the temptation to tinker with their line up ahead of the second Test against New Zealand, naming the same squad that inflicted a record defeat on the Kiwis in Johannesburg.

The eleven men who won by 358 runs will play again, which means there is still no place for Shaun Pollock in the squad, while Neil McKenzie and Boeta Dippenaar, who were tipped for recalls after impressing with South Africa 'A' miss out also.

The second Test starts on November 16th.

South Africa: Graeme Smith (captain), Herschelle Gibbs, Hashim Amla, Jacques Kallis, Ashwell Prince, AB De Villiers, Mark Boucher (wicketkeeper), Paul Harris, Andre Nel, Dale Steyn, Makhaya Ntini
