Prince, who turns 37 in May, will play for Lancashire and then call it quits.

His final match for the Chevrolet Warriors will start in Cape Town tomorrow.

It is a Sunfoil Series encounter between the Warriors and competition leaders the Nashua Mobile Cape Cobras.

Prince represented South Africa in 66 Tests and 52 one-day internationals.

He scored 11 Test centuries and ended with a Test batting average of 42.

Sunfoil Dolphins also have a Sunfoil Series assignment starting tomorrow.

They will be up against the Bizhub Lions in Durban.

Kyle Abbott is in the Dolphins squad, while the Lions are expected to give a debut to Kagiso Rabada.

The fast bowler, who is just 18, was a star for South Africa at the recent Under-19 World Cup.

It is a tournament South Africa won.
