In terms of its age, the SA20 is a baby when compared to some of the more established franchise systems like the IPL, PSL, BBL or the CPL. But Graeme Smith, the SA20's commissioner, couldn't be happier with how the first three seasons have gone (the final of the third edition will happen at the Wanderers on Saturday).
