The South African team doctor Mohammed Moosajee gave clean chits to the SA players.
The South Africa will play three test matches, three T20s and three ODIs against the Blackcaps.
Batsman AB de Villiers with the awesome all-rounder Albie Morkel, somber batsman Colin Ingram, fast paced seamer Vernon Philander and classic spinner Imran Tahir were all suffering from or sustained small injuries and will recover soon.
"I'm happy to report that all the niggles we were dealing with after the recent Sri Lanka tour have been dealt with," revealed Moosajee.
"Players were rested and rehabilitated and responded well under the watchful eyes of their franchise fitness trainers and physiotherapists. We have no major concerns and the players responded well to the rest and rehabilitation."
Jacques Rudolph will certainly play the test matches; Marchant de Lange was given another chance to play in T20I level and Colin Ingram will not play recently in the ODI frame of the game.
Another significant feature in this squad is Justin Ontong has returned in the limited over frame and JP Duminy is given another chance in the test squad.
