SA20 auction to fill 19 slots on October 7
The SA20 season five auction is set for October 7 to fill 19 remaining squad slots for four franchises, after organisers trimmed 789 registrations to a 156-player shortlist featuring 95 South Africans and 61 overseas players. Most teams retained cores, with Durban Super Giants and Paarl Royals already complete, while Joburg Super Kings and MI Cape Town must each fill six slots within a $2.11 million maximum spend. Notable local names include Faf du Plessis, Rassie van der Dussen and Wiaan Mulder, while overseas attractions feature Kieron Pollard and Trent Boult; U23 spots and high bids are expected focal points.
Nineteen SA20 squad slots remain and will be auctioned October 7.
