Here, SABC Sport takes a look at some of the records and stats that could be broken this year.
391 - The number of runs Jos Buttler has scored in the SA20, more than anyone else in the history of the competition so far.
254 - The highest total racked up in the SA20, scored by the Joburg Super Giants against the Pretoria Capitals in February 2023.
201.49 - The incredible strike rate of Will Jacks from his seven games in the inaugural season of SA20. He scored 270 runs at an average of 38.57.
113 - The highest individual score achieved in a SA20 match, scored by Faf du Plessis for the Joburg Super Kings against the Durban Super Giants
62.50 - Matthew Breetzke's batting average after the first season of SA20 was higher than any other player but it won't be a surprise if it drops a bit this season or if he is overtaken by the likes of Leus du Plooy and Heinrich Klaasen.
20 - Going into the second SA20 campaign, Roelof van de Merwe and Anrich Nortje top the list of wicket takers with 20 apiece.

10 - Ottneil Baartman boasts a better strike rate than any other bowler in the competition, picking up a wicket every 10 balls he bowled on average in the first season of SA20.
9.55 - It will be an incredible effort if he can maintain it through season two, but Van der Merve also boasts the best bowling average in the competition, a shade under 10 runs a wicket.
8 - The record for the most sixes hit by one player in a single innings is shared by Jacks and Du Plessis on eight.
6 - The most wickets taken by a bowler in an SA20 match was when Van der Merwe claimed six scalps for the Eastern Cape Sunrisers against the Joburg Super Giants.
4 - The record for the most 50s scored in SA20 so far is held by two people with four half-centuries each: Buttler and Klaasen.
3 - The number of times Evan Jones has been dismissed for a duck in SA20. He tops the table going into season two.
