The ones in the starting lineup Smith, Devillers, Kallis, Boucher, Kemp, Pollock, Nitini and than its filling in the rest.
Thing is, Prince has scored more runs in the last calendar year for SA than any other batsman. granted, he might not score them at a canter. But in the same way that you need a Chanderpaul to bat through the innings, Prince can play a role of keeping his wicket intact while his partner goes for the runs.

Unless SA do a Mark Butcher, and don't play him at all!
