Daredevils head coach Gary Kirsten was confident that the pair, when fit, will strengthen the bowling resources.

"We look forward to the return of Zaheer and Shami to the playing XI. Thus far the bowling unit has stood up well and made the most of the opportunities. The most pleasing aspect of our bowling has been the performance of the spinners and the younger fast bowlers," said Kirsten.
