Van Niekerk was the fourth-highest scorer in South Africa's domestic T20 competition last winter
Former captain Dane van Niekerk is in line for a return with South Africa after reversing her international retirement and being named in a World Cup training group.
Van Niekerk, 32, retired from South Africa duty in March 2023, having been left out of the T20 World Cup squad earlier that year for failing "to meet the minimum criteria for fitness".
Though she has not played since March, Van Niekerk has continued to feature in domestic cricket.
Van Niekerk said "time away has reminded me how much I have missed representing my country".
