Squads for all six teams for upcoming MSL announced

Cape Town [South Africa], Sept 3 (ANI): Squads of all six teams for the upcoming edition of the Mzansi Super League (MSL) were announced on Tuesday.
A player draft took place to determine which player will represent which team. There were a total of 184 foreign players in the draft which also included the Kolpak players.
This year's draft saw a huge increase in the overseas player's list as only 71 cricketers had applied last year.
Before the draft, each team had already been allocated a big-name as the marquee Protea player as well as an International Marquee player.
In the draft, teams made their picks to fill the remaining places from the foreign/Kolpak and South African players.
Thirteen players were chosen in the draft by each team and the 14th position will be a wild card and it will be selected at the conclusion of the provincial T20 competition.
This will give all squads a total of 16 players.
The draft had started with a reduced round one as the Durban Heat (David Miller), the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants (Chris Morris) and the Jozi Stars (Rassie van der Dussen) had all retained their first-choice players from last year's tournament.
It meant that the Tshwane Spartans had the first pick with Morne Morkel, followed by the Paarl Rocks with JP Duminy and the Cape Town Blitz with Liam Livingstone of England.
In round two there was only place available with the Heat opting for Dane Vilas as the Blitz (Dale Steyn), the Stars (Reeza Hendricks), the Giants (JJ Smuts), the Rocks (Tabraiz Shamsi) and the Spartans (Lungi Ngidi) all had retained players.
The MSL is the premier T20 cricket tournament in South Africa. It will consist of six franchise teams representing different South African cities.
