Lahore, 15 November 2019:
The Pakistan Cricket Board today released the preliminary list of Gold Category foreign players for the HBL Pakistan Super League Player Draft 2019 as well as a list of 325 local players who have been assigned Gold, Silver and Emerging categories.
The list of 325 local players includes all cricketers from the domestic first and second XI squads as well as U19 cricketers.
