South Africa have opted to rest Jacques Kallis for their upcoming one-day international series against England.

The selectors have made the decision to omit the 36-year-old with September's Twenty20 World Cup in mind.

Dean Elgar, who has yet to win a cap for his nation, has taken the place of the all-rounder for the five-match series, which gets underway on Friday, August 24 in Cardiff.

Spinner Imran Tahir and all-rounder Ryan McLaren have also been recalled to the 15-man squad.

South Africa ODI squad: AB de Villiers, Hashim Amla, JP Duminy, Faf du Plessis, Dean Elgar, Imran Tahir, Ryan McLaren, Albie Morkel, Morne Morkel, Justin Ontong, Wayne Parnell, Robin Peterson, Graeme Smith, Dale Steyn, Lonwabo Tsotsobe
