Chris Morris backs Aiden Markram to spark bidding war at SA20 auction
NEW DELHI: With the SA20 auction around the corner, former South African all-rounder expects to be among the biggest draws when bidding begins on September 9 in Johannesburg. "Sunrisers haven't retained him, but they do have a right-to-match card, meaning they can match the final bid for him and retain his services," Morris said, as quoted by SA20. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! "That opens the door for mind games -- other teams could bid aggressively to push his price high enough to make it difficult for the Sunrisers to bring him back," he added. Morris pointed to two franchises that could target the Proteas batter. "Two teams stand out to me: MI Cape Town, which would solve their captaincy question -- not that Rashid Khan is doing a bad job -- but having a successful local international captain at number four would be a big boost, especially since they've released Rassie van der Dussen, leaving a vacancy at number three. The other is Pretoria Capitals, who have one of the largest remaining purses. He's a local player, would fill their captaincy role, slot in at number three, and bring strong leadership after Rilee Rossouw's stint last year. Either way, Aiden Markram is going to be hot property," he said. The SA20 has grown quickly since its inception, with last year's auction attracting nearly 600 player registrations from around the world. This year's retained and pre-signed list already features big names such as Nicholas Pooran, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, and England's Jos Buttler and Jonny Bairstow. Each franchise was allowed a maximum of six retained or pre-signed players during the retention window, which closed on July 18, comprising up to three South African and three overseas players. Teams have also completed their six wildcard signings, with attention now shifting to the remaining slots.

For Season 4, a wildcard player could be any overseas cricketer or a South African who was part of the team's squad in Season 3. The new season begins on December 26, with the auction expected to set the tone for another blockbuster edition of South Africa's premier T20 competition.

SA all-rounder Corbin Bosch penalised for Level 1 breach of ICC Code of Conduct
Last Updated: South African all-rounder Corbin Bosch was found to have breached Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel South Africa's fast bowling all-rounder Corbin Bosch has been penalised for a Level 1 breach of the ICC Code of Conduct during the second T20I against Australia on Tuesday. The International Cricket Council (ICC) stated that one demerit point has been added to Bosch's disciplinary record. The incident took place in the 17th over of Australia's innings when Bosch, after dismissing Ben Dwarshuis, gestured towards the player's dugout in a way that could have provoked an aggressive reaction from the batter. Bosch was found to have breached Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to 'using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during an International Match." He accepted the sanction proposed by the ICC match officials, avoiding the need for a formal hearing. In the match, South Africa was lifted to an impressive 218/7 by Dewald Brevis, who hit a blistering unbeaten 125 off 56 balls, the highest individual score by a Proteas batter in T20Is. Playing in just his ninth T20I, Brevis, 22, reached his century in just 41 balls, becoming the youngest men's T20I centurion for South Africa. He also recorded the second-fastest men's T20I hundred for his country. In reply, Tim David's 24-ball half-century kept Australia in contention of chasing the massive total. However, three wickets each from Bosch and Kwena Maphaka bowled the hosts out for 165, securing a 53-run win for South Africa. The deciding match of the T20I series will be played in Cairns on Saturday. The game will also be the first-ever Men's T20I at Cazalys Stadium, expected to attract a sell-out crowd of 10,000 spectators. After hosting the ODI series opener on August 19, Australia and South Africa will head to Mackay for the final two matches on August 22 and 24, respectively. This will also be the first time the Australian men's team plays an international match at the Great Barrier Reef Arena.
