South Africa also retained Beuran Hendricks as cover ahead of the T20I series.
After crushing West Indies 0-2 in the two-match Test series, South Africa will now face Kieron Pollard-led side in the five-T20I series with all matches to be played in Grenada.
But ahead of the T20I series, in a disappointing development, South African all-rounder Dwaine Pretorius tested positive for COVID-19 and as a result has not traveled with the T20 squad from St Lucia to Grenada.
