Yes, it indeed is a good suggestion, and I will be hugely surprised if the non-first-choice players are just asked stay at home rather than involve in some practise matches in the mean time their main squad is travelling around the country.
But that said, I don't see the relevance of this with the contention by SA management about IPL.
