Ten Dolphins players snapped up in SA20 auction

Two players will call Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium home for the competition with Prenelan Subrayen being picked by Durban’s Super Giants before the auction while Proteas star Keshav Maharaj was their other Dolphins pick.

“We’re excited to have Durban’s Super Giants call Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium home for the tournament,” CEO of KZN Cricket Heinrich Strydom said. “We hope that the Durban public come through and enjoy some high quality T20 cricket.

“The team will have two of the longest-serving Dolphins players in their ranks in Keshav and Prenelan and along with former Dolphins player and coach Lance Klusener at the helm, they will have a strong KZN flavour.”

The Sunrisers Eastern Cape will see the biggest contingent of Dolphins players with four players heading to Gqeberha for the competition. Ottniel Baartman was selected before the competition and he will be joined by Sarel Erwee, Marques Ackerman and Jon-Jon Smuts in the Eastern Cape.
