team selection
who knows?
Probably because they wanted these guys to get a game in. And they were feeling bad for ashraful because he can't go and party in SA. And since they don't have any batsmen on the team, they went ahead and put NZ in to bat first.
there's usually no logic to it - Ashraful is dropped from the SA team but of course he needs to play the match today. if he does real well, he may be recalled perhaps.
