Quinton de Kock, Mignon du Preez in the money at The Hundred draft

Proteas batters Quinton de Kock and Mignon du Preez were snapped up on Tuesday's Hundred draft ahead of the second edition of the tournament later this year. 

The Southern Brave used their right-to-match card to resign De Kock for £125k (R2.4 million) in the 100-balls-per-side format.

Proteas middle-order batter David Miller was bought as an overseas player for the Welsh Fire for £75k (R1.4 million).

Former Proteas all-rounder and now Netherlands star Roelof van der Merwe was bought by the Northern Superchargers for £40k (R768 233) but not as an overseas player on account of his EU status.

Former Proteas batter Rilee Rossouw signed for the Oval Invincibles as an overseas player for £60k (R1.1 million).

Meanwhile, former Proteas skipper Faf du Plessis was retained by the Northern Superchargers and South African stars Marchant de Lange (Trent Rockets) and Colin Ackermann (Manchester Originals) and were also retained by their respective franchises.

The eight teams will add two additional wildcard players - one domestic and one overseas - in June.

Fresh from their decent campaign at the Women's Cricket World Cup, Proteas batter Mignon du Preez was the sole South African bought at the draft as she signed up for the Trent Rockets.

Du Preez joins the four other Proteas women stars retained by their franchise for this year's tournament: Dane van Niekerk (Oval Invincibles), Marizanne Kapp (Oval Invincibles), Laura Wolvaardt (Northern Superchargers) and Lizelle Lee (Manchester Originals).

The men's Hundred is scheduled to start from 3 August - 3 September, while the women's Hundred gets under way from 11 August to 3 September.
