People Are Finally Seeing The Depth Of Talent Pool In South Africa: Du Plessis On SA20’s Influence
ICC World Test Championship: Former South African skipper Faf du Plessis has credited the SA20 league for providing young players a platform to showcase their talent internationally and gain recognition.
Up to 21 South African players are featuring in the ongoing IPL 2026 season, with 17 of them either retained or bought in the player auction across the 10 teams, and du Plessis highlighted South Africa’s recent successes in ICC tournaments, including their triumph in the World Test Championship at Lord’s last year.
"When it comes to opportunity, you have to credit the SA20. People are finally seeing the depth of the talent pool in South Africa.

It was never a high number," du Plessis told SA20 on his return after a successful broadcasting stint in the IPL.
