South Africa have named an unchanged squad for the last three matches of the Standard Bank one-day international series.

Speaking to the media after South Africa's comprehensive 108-run win in the fourth game at Newlands, Haroon Lorgat, the convener of selectors, said: "Our job as selectors becomes a lot easier when the guys perform as well as they have in the last three matches. With the players settling down well in their roles it is important to show confidence in them and maintain continuity."

The only possible change to the squad was the return of Charl Langeveldt, but that was ruled out by the fact that he was still unable to bat after breaking his left hand during the Test series.

South Africa lead the seven-match series 2-1, with the next ODI to be played at East London on February 9.
