England selectors have called up Durham bowler Liam Plunkett for the first two One-Day Internationals against South Africa following an injury to allrounder Stuart Broad.



Broad missed today\'s warm-up match against South Africa \'A\' because of a shoulder injury.



Paul Collingwood missed England\'s second 20/20 match with a recurrence of a long-standing back problem, spinner Graeme Swann has a chest muscle injury and pace bowler and James Anderson has a knee injury.



England play the first of their five one-day matches against South Africa in Johannesburg on Friday.



The teams tied a 20/20 series 1-1 and will also play four test matches.
