The third SA20 player auction was held in Cape Town on Tuesday as the six franchise teams looked to finalise their squads ahead of the 2025 season, which begins on January 9 next year.
There were only 13 slots up for grabs while 188 players from South Africa and around the world registered for the auction. The players were divided and presented to the franchises in the following categories: batters, wicketkeepers, all-rounders, fast bowlers and spin bowlers.
The auction was conducted by renowned auctioneer Richard Madley, who pioneered the legendary Indian Premier League (IPL) players auctions for a decade.
South Africa opener Reeza Hendricks fetched the biggest sum at the auction, with MI Cape Town securing his services for a whopping R4.3 million. Among the other big earners were England pacer Richard Gleeson and West Indies batter Evin Lewis.
