The SA20 player auction for the 2024 season will take place in Johannesburg on September 27. Each team will have a purse of R39.1 million (USD 2.1 million approx), an increase of R5.1 million (US$ 274,000 approx) from the last time.
On the auction day, 21 slots are to be filled – six of those reserved for rookie players. A rookie player is someone who is a South African, is aged 22 or under, and has not played SA20 before.
In a squad of 19, each team is required to have a minimum of ten South African players, a maximum of seven international players and an additional new rookie player.
“Season 2 of the Betway SA20 is shaping up to be another spectacular showcase of world-class cricket and entertainment,” Graeme Smith, the SA20 league commissioner, said in a press release. “The quality of the players already included in the squads, including a few newcomers, is testimony to the success of the inaugural season.
