PSL Draft Predictions!

Who will be the first local to be picked in Platinum?

Who will be the first emerging player to be picked?

Who will be the first player to be wildcarded and RTMed?

Which team will pick David Warner and Kane Williamson?
 
all I can see is the Rana Bros yapping on tv

What time will they start the actual draft?
 
So many good players available this time but you know some of the franchises are going to go for the Tom Koehler Cadmores and Jordan Coxes instead of the actual quality players
 
I listened to maybe 3 fan mock drafts on YouTube. Every time Sam Billings was picked up by someone in the platinum
 
This is the worst National Anthem play and worst orchestra I have heard in recent past.

No sync. No rhythm. Sounds like they brought a bunch of people together and asked them to play on the spot without any rehearsal
 
Salman Jugaar with Islamabad United

Guy who isn’t a T20 batter getting so much coverage by them.
 
Lol only PSL do these clown shows.
They are unnecessary and waste of money.
 
Dunno lads. Maybe I'm just being a bit pessimistic, but this is a cringe show.
 
Daryl Mitchell has been picked by Lahore Qalandars in the Platinum category
 
This lulloo Ali Tareen adding to the cringefest. just state your pick brah no need to hype the female coach
 
Micheal Bracewell was the big left handed top order he wanted :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:


Ali Tareen
 
Quetta Gladiators have picked Faheem Ashraf in the Platinum category. Wow, unexpected!
 
Abbas Afridi to KK as expected

QG excellent picks. Thank God TKC was rtm for them. Dodged a massive bullet there
 
The organisers should be lashed at the end of draft to complete the horror show
 
What’s wrong with Peshawar Zalmi? Why do they insist on destroying the PSL brand?
 
Mark Chapman will be needed big time in the second half to overtake Russow
 
Platinum:

Babar (lol T20 opener)
Saim (injured)
TKC (finished)
 
Platinum:

Rizwan (lol T20 opener)
Mir (a gold standard player)
Bracewell (utility all rounder)
 
Platinum:

Mark Chapman (Pakistani road killer)
Faheem Ashraf (PSL stokes)
Finn Allen (T20 Royalty)
 
Platinum:

Shadab Khan (PSL poster boy at best)
Naseem (alright bowler)
Matt Short (Gun T20 opener)
 
Disappointed with the picks of TKC and Bracewell. But you can expect that from Chawwal Tareen and Peshawar clownmi
 
Did Zalmi actually pick Tom ahead of Williamson, Billings etc 🤣🤣🤣

That guy is proper rubbish
Pick?

Bhai they did a Race 3 dramatic Right to match for him! They let everyone know how desperate they are for him
 
Maybe the TKC pick by QG was a smart one because they knew they could get PZ to use up their RTM
 
Platinum:

Warner (certified G)
Milne (deadly if ball swings)
Abbas (deserved platinum. Best middle overs+ one of the best death seamers in T20s in Pakistan)
 
Platinum:

Shaheen (eagle bhai eagle)
Fakhar (Fakhar-E-Pakistan)
Mitchell (proper middle order T20 batsman)
 
Lol Abbas the trundler and bracewell in the platinum category.
Faheem ashraf is one of the worst player ever.
He offers Nothing. Awful players in platinum category.
 
Best PSL draft list ever and Peshawar spoils it with that TKC pick.

I should say QG spoilt it by picking him first actually
 
When you have Babar, Rizwan, Shadab, Naseem, Usama Mir in the platinum category, no one should cry when high quality players are going un picked.
 
Kane Williamson goes unpicked in PSL draft 2025

No second round for unpicked players.
