London, Dec 8: Veteran pacer James Anderson has made a return to the England Test squad as he has been included in the team that will embark on a four-Test tour of South Africa. The first Test will start on December 26 in Centurion which will be preceded by two practice matches.

Jonny Bairstow and Mark Wood are the two other players who have earned recalls to the Test squad. Bairstow was dropped for England's recently concluded Test series in New Zealand and may have to work towards finding a place in the playing XI.
