Uncapped Proteas keeper-batter Donavon Ferreira was the Joburg Super Kings’ biggest signing at the SA20 League player auction on Monday, September 19. He was purchased for 5.5 million rand. 24-year-old Ferreira has played 19 T20 matches so far, scoring 384 runs at an average of 54.85 and a strike rate of 148.26.

At the auction, Joburg Super Kings also added Harry Brook to their team list, purchasing the young England batter for 2.10 million rand. The franchise included South African batter Janneman Malan to their squad, picking him up for 2.70 million rand. Another Proteas batter, Reeza Hendricks, was purchased for 4.50 million rand.

Among overseas purchases, Joburg Super Kings went for West Indies pacer Alzarri Joseph, adding him to the squad for 2.10 million rand.

There was some intense bidding for young Proteas keeper-batter Ferreira, and some confusion as well. Eventually, the Paarl Royals and Pretoria Capitals had to pull out due to their limited purse and Ferreira was picked by Super Kings for 5.5 million rand.

Joburg Super Kings are one of the six franchises that will feature in the inaugural edition of SA20 - Cricket South Africa’s (CSA) franchise T20 competition. Faf du Plessis is the captain of the franchise, while Stephen Fleming is the coach.

The franchise is owned by Chennai Super Kings Cricket Limited (CSKCL), which owns the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Apart from Du Plessis, Joburg Super Kings also purchased Sri Lankan spinner Maheesh Theekshana, West Indies all-rounder Romario Shepherd and uncapped Proteas fast bowler Gerald Coetzee ahead of the SA20 auction.

The franchise had also signed England all-rounder Moeen Ali ahead of the player auction. However, he pulled out of the tournament after signing with Sharjah Warriors in the International League T20 (ILT20).
