SA20 Squads- Unveiling The Participants

The SA20 league has been one of the most exciting leagues & is already giving tough competition to BBL, ILT20, etc. The League was held for the first time in Jan 2023 with the Sunrisers Eastern Cape ending up as the title winners in the inaugural season. The 2nd season also saw the Sunrisers Eastern Cape defend their title with ease. In the SA20, the teams are owned by the IPL franchises which automatically creates hype for the SA20 since these franchises are the 'Sister Franchises' of the IPL teams.

In the last couple of seasons of SA20, plenty of talent both local and overseas has come out from the league where the likes of Marco Jansen, Andile Simelane, and Leus Du Plooy to name a few have made a long-lasting impression in the initial years of the competition.

With the third season of the league set to begin on January 9th (Thursday) let's have a look at the squads of all the six teams that are set to fight for the ultimate glory for an entire month.
