Cape Town - Cricket South Africa (CSA) has received a bumper list of more than 250 international players, T20 specialists and Kolpak players who have signed the agreement to enter the draft (AED) for Mzansi Super League (MSL) 2.0.
The second edition of this global event will take place in November and December this year with the draft scheduled to take place shortly.
Fans can also look forward to the announcement of the marquee players - both South African and international - in the immediate future.
"This is confirmation that MSL is now an established global brand that is taking its place at the head table alongside the other Global T20 events," commented CSA Chief Executive Thabang Moroe.
"We have drawn interest from around the world with players applying from virtually all the top tier international countries.
"To this can be added our Proteas, past and present, who will add further lustre to our tournament.
"This will certainly be the biggest T20 event we have hosted since the inaugural ICC T20 World Cup that was staged here in 2007 and became the fore-runner of all the global T20 events that followed.
"We look forward to adding yet another highlight to our home international season that will be followed by the incoming tours by England and Australia. All our stake holders can look forward to an exciting 2019/20 summer," concluded Moroe.
