Yasir Shah
Imam ul Haq
Salman Butt
Salman Irshad

Long Shots but good chance if tournament remains in Pakistan:

Hassan Ali
Mohammad Nawaz

Lol you’re assuming as if Pakistani franchises are ruthless with players cuts. That’s certainly not the case.
 
I’d just end the cap on foreign players quota just to get rid of these ttfs. These players don’t have much of a future so what’s the point of dragging down the standard of the league.

Just keep the emerging player quota.
 
Salman Irshad hasnt been too bad imo, why do you think he doesn't deserve to be in PSL 6?
 
These guys will be our next coaches and that's even worse than them playing.

Bang average bowler and PSL proves that you need to have pace over 140k to be half decent
 
[MENTION=2016]Rana[/MENTION], Are you really serious? Players like Shehzad, Rahat, Butt, Yasir, Sohail, Imam... have big connection. They will play even PSL 10. Only Sohail Khan will be missed out so as some players around 40 due to lack of fitness to play not lack of performance.

The standards have raised since its moved to Pakistan. I don’t see these guys as worthy investments. The world can see that they are not up to the mark. If they stay then we deserve this humiliation

Unfortunately PCB doesn't see that way. Otherwise players like Shehzad, Umar Akmal keep coming back to Pakistan cricket. PCB choose head coach who don't even meet the criteria. Junior players are ignoring all the time whether its PSL or domestic.
 
Please add Asif Ali and Fahim Ashraf in the list as well!!! Both are serial failure.
 
A lot of emerging players including Amir Khan, Akif Javed, Salman Irshad, Arshad Iqbal etc
 
We have these threads every year and they are then playing the following year.
 
Muhammad Irfan-He has been struggling badly in this tournament
Sohail Khan

These two 100% not playing
 
The players that I desperately dont want to see ever again are Asif Ali, Sohail Akhtar, Faheem Ashraf, Shinwari, Yasir Shah, M Irfan, Imam-ul-Haq & Azam Khan..

Will add more to the list as i remember more names..
 
Most Pakistani cricketers are so laid back that once they achieve any kind of success it gets to them and it affects their overall skill development and it shows in their cricket and the tag "Mercurial" justifies them so there will be lots of new local cricketers who after few years of cricket will fade away because they will not develop their skills
 
PSL in Pakistan might end the careers of 130-140kmh bowlers sooner rather than later

Spinners are also being killed here
 
Premature post. We are just at the half way stage and anything can happen. Any of these players (not that I agree with all the names ) can have a match winning knock and get their teams to the next stage and as a consequence book their place in the team for at least another season of psl. Just wait and see for now.

Nawaz is a utility cricketer and he is still young.It may be worth retaining him.Hasan good but has declined.He has to work hard to get fit and fine tune his bowling.He is not bowling in the right areas.There is no young batsman to speak of except Haider Ali.T20 is not the right format to throw youngsters in.They should play first class cricket for a few season and then plat T20.

I fully see this happening. As you say, these guys are too connected to be dropped and none of them will willingly miss out on the PSL, why would they.
 
End the quota system for foreign players and see how our local players start improving. I’m not much of a capitalist but I do see a free rider problem here when it comes to our local players. They take their position for granted and they keep regressing. Non of Pakistani players, not even Babar Azam, can play the kind of innings Ben Dunk has played tonight, if we are honest to ourselves and that’s a huge worry for me.

Bro these Australians are raised as Vehshis in cricket. Absolute beasts, fearless batsmen! I can name so many who would do the same, past and present Aussies.

Tbf, no Indian can do what Ben Dunk did today either, and Indians have a proper batting culture.

Rohit, KL, and Kohli could do it. Even Pandya would have a fair shot at that chase.

No chance. They are not brutal like these Aussies. They have more class and finesse in their stroke play, they are not savage or barbaric like a seasoned Aussie hitter.
 
I hope it's end of Ahmed mediocre shehzad, sarfraz pathetic Ahmed and all his friends such as Sohail khan Mohammad nawaz Anwar Ali. Yasir Shah imam ul haq should be kicked out as well.

So how many missed out or should have missed out?
 
A few ended up being friendly retentions = friends with the captain, coach, mentor or an official pulling strings behind the scenes.

I think Bazid Khan described it best during the draft when Hasan Ali got picked by Shadab and co
"Roti Gang"
