Ul-Haq comes in for Richard Gleeson, bringing with him his vast global T20 experience.
Commenting on the new faces, SA20 league Commissioner Graeme Smith said: “We’ve had an action-packed start to the opening week of Season 2 with some high-quality cricket and entertainment on show. We can see the teams pulling out all the stops and bringing in some world-class players into their squads, it’s great to have the calibre of these players joining the League.”
