He will join the squad for their camp starting in Pretoria today (Wednesday),” CSA announced.

IANS adds from Dhaka:

Charl Langeveldt is set to work with the South African team after his resignation as the fast bowling coach of Bangladesh was accepted by the BCB. “Langeveldt said he has offer to work in South Africa’s senior side, which is why he requested the BCB to let him go,” ESPNcricinfo quoted Akram Khan of BCB as telling Bengali daily Prothom Alo on Tuesday.
