However, South African guns like Ottneil Baartman, Corbin Bosch, Matthew Breetzke, Dewald Brevis, and Karabo Meso have received their maiden CSA contracts for the 2026-27 season, while offspinner Simon Harmer got a hybrid contract over Miller.
Hybrid contract snub hints at possible end of David Miller’s South Africa career

In this period, South Africa will host Australia, England, and Bangladesh for eight Tests as part of their 2025-2027 ICC World Test Championship. They will also begin preparations for the 2027 ODI World Cup with the Sri Lanka tour. This busy schedule paced with test matches highlights why the single-format players, or white-ball specialists, were not given the contracts.
South Africa's central contract list for 2026-27 season:
Hybrid Contract: Simon Harmer
Players of National Interest (PONIS):
Marques Ackerman, Nandre Burger, Okuhle Cele, Gerald Coetzee, Connor Esterhuizen, Dian Forrester, Bjorn Fortuin, Zubayr Hamza, Jordan Hermann, Rubin Hermann, Nqobani Mokoena, Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Nqaba Peter, Sinethemba Qeshile, Lesego Senokwane, Lutho Sipamla, Jason Smith, Prenelan Subrayen, Tiaan van Vuuren, Codi Yusuf
