PSL 2018 Draft Thread

[Hermoine Green]

If you wan pick Bravo who will also join Qualifiers and BD series, then why not Lewis

 

[MABA]

Dwayne Bravo? man he is way past his prime

 

[Hermoine Green]

Really? Bravo pf all people? )

Darren Sammy buddy.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Really? Bravo pf all people? )

makes sense for them, they have a functioning top order, its the middle order where they have stuffed up

 

[Hasan123]

Teams are just going for what they know. Not looking to take risks.

 

[Hermoine Green]

Multan picks Imran Tahir

 

[last_knight]

We should have picks updated in the OP.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

people forget that in such leagues Star value plays a big part, if you are past it but still a name you will get picked

 

[Watsupdoc]

Lol what was the joke from Javed Afridi?

 

[Hasan123]

Good pick for multan

 

[QalandarFan]

Why has no one picked Lewis?

 

[Titan24]

Really? Bravo pf all people? )

Which other all rounder would you would have recommended?

 

[Watsupdoc]

What a pick from Multan Sultan!

 

[Hermoine Green]

Excellent picks are Imran Tahir and Lynn.. Rest are rubbish

 

[Hermoine Green]

Why has no one picked Lewis?

Due to WC qualifiers and series of WI with BD

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Tahir to Multan, he is great but we so many good young spinners, so from that point of view its disappointing

Lewis and Matthews demoted , both are still great picks for any team

 

[MABA]

Does Ramiz even know whats going on, asking which player Lahore has picked

 

[Shafi]

who needs lewis when you have rafatullah mohmand ?

PCB should not allow anyone play domestic cricket over 35 and should not consider anyone over 32 for national team.

 

[Titan24]

If you wan pick Bravo who will also join Qualifiers and BD series, then why not Lewis

He doesnt play for WI in ODIs anymore atleast didnt play in the Eng series and havent played for them in ODIs for over two years

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

fs just remembered that Khasif Bhatti is playing for Multan. Good for him but what a waste of a space

 

[QalandarFan]

Why does Hafeez seem so angry?

 

[Azzurri]

i guess i will be supporting Multan this year

 

[Titan24]

Tahir to Multan, he is great but we so many good young spinners, so from that point of view its disappointing

Lewis and Matthews demoted , both are still great picks for any team

Multan Sultan doesnt have any good spinner in their team, may be thats why

 

[Shafi]

who needs lewis when you have rafatullah mohmand ?

Did he get selected?

 

[Watsupdoc]

I like the kit of Multan Sultan. It's pretty nice.

 

[Hermoine Green]

Qalandar picks Mustafiz ur Rehman

 

[Titan24]

Fizz with LQ

 

[Watsupdoc]

Mustafizur for Lahore.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

great pick by Lahore

His style of bowling will be deadly on these pitches

 

[Markhor]

He doesnt play for WI in ODIs anymore atleast didnt play in the Eng series and havent played for them in ODIs for over two years

He was injured for the England series.

The WICB's amnesty for the rebel players means he's available for selection again.

 

[QalandarFan]

Decent pick by Qalandars Fizz.

 

[shady]

Great picks for Lahore so far

 

[MABA]

They picked Mustafizur again? hopefully he makes it to the stadium this time

 

[Ellipsism]

MashAllah, looks like LQ are going in with a trundler brigade

 

[Titan24]

Fizz will be available for 8 matches out of 10 so a good pick overall

 

[Hermoine Green]

Islamabad picks Luke Ronchi

 

[Titan24]

Ronchi is an amazing pick by IU

 

[Watsupdoc]

Seriously Luke Ronchi

Who is making these pathetic picks for Isloo?

 

[QalandarFan]

Ronchi for Islamabad good pick. Is Munro apart of the draft if so he should be picked up.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Ronchi is a good pick, what Islamabad need

Makes it more perfect that he is 36 years old

 

[Azeem Zafar]

Ronchi, finally a good pick for Islamabad. Hope he retains his form now.

 

[Ellipsism]

Ronchi fits right in, a bright young star just 36 years old...

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Seriously Luke Ronchi

Who is making these pathetic picks for Isloo?

they arent gonna find a better keeper who can also hit big

 

[Ellipsism]

Waqar on team composition "Emphasis on youth" proceeds to select an over the hill grandpa as wk.

 

[Markhor]

Many of these T20 leagues all merge into one. The same old faces picking up their cheques.

 

[90MPH]

Far too much waffle.

Just get on with picking the players.

 

[Hermoine Green]

Karachi picks Mitch Johnson

 

[Watsupdoc]

they arent gonna find a better keeper who can also hit big

I am sure they could have picked a local wicket-keeper... And picked a better overseas player than Ronchi...

 

[Ellipsism]

they arent gonna find a better keeper who can also hit big

Sam Billings?

 

[Titan24]

Mitchell Johnson to Karachi

 

[AFM]

The players who weren't picked in Platinum - are they still avaliable or do franchises have to pick from the stated category?

Will they be avaliable in the supplement rounds? Reason I ask is because there is a certain somebody who might not feature this year

 

[Markhor]

Waqar on team composition "Emphasis on youth" proceeds to select an over the hill grandpa as wk.

Classic Waqar - we all saw his "emphasis on youth" when he gave 39 year old Rifatullah Mohmand a T20I debut for Pakistan.

 

[Ellipsism]

Excellent pick for KK, hope to see some fire from MJ.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Why are all the teams picking over the hill, retired players?

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Wow interesting, Johnson wasn't exactly kind to Micky in his book

 

[QalandarFan]

KK with a good pick in Mitchell Johnson!

But seriously lets get some young blood in there as well!

 

[Azeem Zafar]

Welcome to PSL Mitchell Johnson. Excellent pick by Kings.

 

[Titan24]

Mitchell Johnson and Amir bowling together, have not seen such a combo in bowling in any league

 

[QalandarFan]

Also Amir can learn a lot by bowling alongside Johnson!

 

[Markhor]

Sam Billings?

He'll be on England duty. They have that T20I tri series with Australia and NZ.

 

[AFM]

Unfair draft order by the way. Should either be random each round or a reverse of the previous round. With it being fixed (except trades) it gives Lahore a huge advantage and Multan a big disadvantage.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Johson is old but still quick, and had a good BBL and decent IPL

in 4 overs he can still be lethal

 

[Ellipsism]

Why are all the teams picking over the hill, retired players?

MJ is still hitting top speeds and was hooping it around in the BBL. Old, yes. Over the hill, no.

 

[Brilliance]

Lol..Lahore could hv done better by picking jhonson

 

[Titan24]

KK with a good pick in Mitchell Johnson!

But seriously lets get some young blood in there as well!

Young blood will be from Pakistan. Why to have young blood from overseas players, experienced are better as they can share their experiences with our youngsters

 

[Hasan123]

Would have preferred Lewis,Lynn,or Munroe as an Islamabad fan

 

[QalandarFan]

Brathwaite? Don't see him as a good player...

 

[Ellipsism]

He'll be on England duty. They have that T20I tri series with Australia and NZ.

Can't think of any off the top of my head, but there's surely better wk batsman in the list than Ronchi.

 

[MABA]

Carlos Brathwaite one of the most overrated players currently

 

[90MPH]

Out of date Johnson is going to get pasted in T20s, mark my words.

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Out of date Johnson is going to get pasted in T20s, mark my words.

3rd highest wicket taker in the BBL with an economy of 6

 

[AFM]

Wow interesting, Johnson wasn't exactly kind to Micky in his book

Even Mickey stated in a recent interview that his relationship with the homework crew has been damaged. Interesting choice.

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

Quetta pace attack is pathetic. Atleast pick 1 pacer.

 

[Titan24]

QG with some good all rounders

 

[RobinJay]

Seriously, Brathwaite?

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

awful pick by Quetta

its like they are making the evaluation of allrounders

Anwar Ali > Carlos > Watson

Watson used to be a great player, all of them crap bowlers now

 

[90MPH]

Carlos Brathwaite one of the most overrated players currently

Too many players just being picked on past reputation.

Ingram was a good pick as his form has been insane recently but the rest have been frankly poor.

 

[Titan24]

Quetta pace attack is pathetic. Atleast pick 1 pacer.

Mir Hamza and Anwar are here. Not too fast but...

 

[Brilliance]

Lol, Brathwaite.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Tamim returns to Zalmi. Good pick.
