A tender was issued worldwide.
The deadline for ‘Expressions of Interest’ is 17h00 Central African Time (GMT+2) Mar 3.

“Our vision is to drive the creation of a new #T20 destination league in South Africa that would energise the sport of cricket in South Africa by creating a global platform for the best-in-class to perform and showcase their talent to a global audience,”Chris Nenzani was quoted as saying by Cricket South Africa website.
“We have received a very favourable response to our plans from the ICC and Member Boards and look to their support in our endeavour. We now look forward to another exciting chapter in the evolution of South African cricket and to the whole game benefitting from our new #T20 Global League,” added Nenzani.
