CSK owned Johannesburg franchise in South Africa's T20 League is likely to rope in MS Dhoni and Stephen Fleming

Without any doubt, the Indian Premier League has been the most loved domestic tournament all around the globe. Moreover, the franchises in the league have bought all the teams ahead of the CSA T20 League, which will take place soon.

According to the reports from other sources, Johannesburg received the highest bid during the auction and was bought by one of the most famous franchises Chennai Super Kings.

As Cricket South Africa announced the list of players to be included in the tournament, the franchise management has to reveal their name, theme colour and a few more before the tournament auction.

In that case, the five-time champions Mumbai Indians have announced their name, MI Cape Town and are looking to sign a head coach and other staff members for the side.
