Kallis to miss Bdesh tour

Thursday, April 3 2003

Jacques Kallis has withdrawn from the South African squad for the ODI tri-series in Bangladesh, also against India, that begins on April 11.

Kallis has not commented himself on the issue, but it's known that his father has been ill for some time.

"Our thoughts are with Jacques at this difficult time and we wish him well. Should his circumstances allow it and he wishes to join up with the team later in the tour, he will be welcome to", said UCBSA Chief Executive Gerald Majola.

South Africa have recently withdrawn from the Sharjah Cup over safety fears, but have confirmed their participation in the Tests and ODIs in Bangladesh after assurances from the Bangladeshi Board.
