A number of England stars are hoping to earn big-money paydays in the player auction for South Africa's new T20 franchise tournament.
The inaugural edition of the SA20 competition is set to begin in January next year and all six franchises have been bought by groups that also own IPL teams. A total of 22 players have already been signed by the six teams pre-auction, including England internationals Jos Buttler, Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran and Reece Topley.
Buttler has joined Paarl Royals, who are owned by his IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals, while Livingstone and Curran will be teammates at MI Cape Town and Topley will represent Durban Super Giants.
