[BouncerGuy]

Jake fraser should have got a buyer... Goes unsold. JFM

 

[m.shah]

They should have given proper stats and country of player.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Jake fraser should have got a buyer... Goes unsold. JFM

Base price is too high.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Usman khawaja also goes unsold...Evan Lewis, brandon king as well

 

[BouncerGuy]

Jason Roy also goes unsold

 

[m.shah]

Why is everyone going unsold here

 

[RidiculousMan]

Usman khawaja also goes unsold...Evan Lewis, brandon king as well

There are better overseas openers that have been picked

 

[RidiculousMan]

Why is everyone going unsold here

Because there are limited spots

 

[BouncerGuy]

Jayden Seales will be a good pick....

 

[BouncerGuy]

Jayden Seales will be a good pick....

Goes unsold.... Wah

 

[RidiculousMan]

Goes unsold.... Wah

That was a surprise

 

[BouncerGuy]

Islamabad going after Peter Siddle... Sialkot also

 

[khyberlion]

Amazing going for Peter Siddle at the age of 41. Pure madness.

 

[cricfan432]

Went for siddle instead of jayden seales

 

[BouncerGuy]

Islamabad going after Peter Siddle... Sialkot also

Goes to Sialkot for 2.5Cr.... Peter Siddle is stallionz

 

[TeymurBlake]

Buying Peter Siddle but nothing for Riley Meredith.

NUTS

 

[RidiculousMan]

Sialkot going after Aussie players. Bought the rejuvenated Peter Siddle.

Though I'm surprised they picked Turner at 4.2Cr

 

[TeymurBlake]

Amazed not more teams look at Zampa. Quality spinner.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Buying Peter Siddle but nothing for Riley Meredith.

NUTS

He has been bowling fire. He was competing with Haris on speed at 145 in BBL

 

[BouncerGuy]

Keshav Maharaj also unsold.....LOL

 

[BouncerGuy]

Tabraiz Shamsi goes to Sialkot for 2.2 CR

 

[TeymurBlake]

I also can't believe Ben McDermott wasn't even looked at.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Mitchell Hay is a good player man. Good keeper. Also the same for Josh Phillipe.

 

[BouncerGuy]

I also can't believe Ben McDermott wasn't even looked at.

Josh Phillipe was also ignored...LOL.

 

[Rana]

What is this weird auction?

Fraser McGurk, Phillipe and many other proper players unsold

Rizwan at 5 crore

 

[Rana]

What’s Peshawar Zalmi waiting for?

Mahira Khan to enter the auction?

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

McGurk is a hack. Glad he wasn't picked. He hasn't done much of anything recently

 

[Rana]

Sialkot going after Aussie players. Bought the rejuvenated Peter Siddle.

Turner is a good player

 

[TeymurBlake]

What’s Peshawar Zalmi waiting for?

Mahira Khan to enter the auction?

They ain't got no clue what they doing.

They look lost like deer in headlights.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

How do you not pick Maharaj but pick Shamsi??

 

[Rana]

McGurk is a hack. Glad he wasn't picked. He hasn't done much of anything recently

Well,, enjoy your Yasir Khan’s and Rizwans

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Well,, enjoy your Yasir Khan’s and Rizwans

Nahh, I disowned this team. I'll just keep supporting my old team IU

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

[The cricket enthusiast]

Why was Irfan Khan Niazi dropped by Pakistan national cricket team?
He’s a clutch player and a gun fielder.
Any takers for him in the Pakistan Super League auction?

Hyderabad

 

[TeymurBlake]

I like Amad Butt. I think he's a decent option.

Specially with the amount of players that have debut for Pakistan & have been given lengthy runs, Amad Butt wouldn't be a bad option.

 

[Kianig89]

Time Paine effect Sialkot after Aussie players ,
Zampa to Karachi is a massive signing

 

[TeymurBlake]

Theekshana is a good get.

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

Khwaja should have been picked. That's a miss

 

[Asif321]

Why is tanvir Ahmed not in auction . Could easily go to PZ for 10 lakh

 

[Kianig89]

Good to see Aussie players getting picked in PSL, though disappointed that McGurk went Unsold, a young player should have been taken.
Spencer Johnson is a direct signing to Gladiators

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

Khwaja should have been picked. That's a miss

There's also a lot of room of improvement. They should ensure that at least there's the picture of the player when they enter the auction/draft.

It just looks so shoddy that the player has entered the auction and there's not even a picture of them.

 

[TeymurBlake]

I thought she said Abdul Hasee

 

[hks222]

Liton Das, Lewin and Jayden Seales need to be picked

 

[TeymurBlake]

Sharoon Siraj is a GOOD player man.

 

[hks222]

Surprised Jason roy went unsold

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Just get Mallika Sagar to do this auction. Zainab and that Hijab lady combined have made so many mistakes. Very amateurish

 

[TeymurBlake]

Afaq Afridi is a good bowler as well.

 

[Ball Blazer]

 

[cricfan432]

Quetta bidding for theeksana, how many spinners do they want?

 

[TeymurBlake]

Arshad Iqbal is also a good bowler.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Bismillah Khan is back

 

[AndayWalaAllRounder]

Misbah ul Haq son Faham ul Haq UNSOLD.

 

[Ball Blazer]

 

[AndayWalaAllRounder]

Aamer Yamin - UNSOLD. Damnnnn

 

[TeymurBlake]

Khalid Usman the "youngster beauty" still going

 

[Fast bowler6929]

Sameer minhas Will play for Islamabad.
Only good batsman in the u-19 team

 

[Ball Blazer]

ISLU gets Sameer for 1.90 crores, who had a base price of 60 lacs.

 

[RidiculousMan]

I expected more interest by other teams for Sameer. Still with United he will be groomed nicely

 

[khyberlion]

Good that Sameer is gone to Islamabad.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Khalid Usman the "youngster beauty" still going

Mo Akram quota

 

[khyberlion]

Good to see Muhammad Farooq selected.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Some absolute rando’s are getting picked.

But actual domestic performers are not.

 

[Fast bowler6929]

Abdul subhan goes for 62.50 to Peshawar.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Abdul Subhan & Ali Raza at Zalmi. Both emerging. Hopefully both get a chance to play.

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Peshawer zalmi saving their purse for TKC

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

Just checked Cricket Australia (reddit) & they have zero interest in the PSL auction. When Smith, Payne, & even Labuschagne were selected, they had posts & interest but now it seems no one is following up or tracking the progress.

 

[shah9425]

Good see nobody bothered to buy that fat useless sharjeel

But according to some clown he should be in t20 team

 

[khyberlion]

Captain Asif Ali also went unsold.

When the entire auctions a shambles, happening mid WC and on a weekday, who's going to be interested.

Said by guy who got middle fingered by Shaheen

It still feels bad honestly.

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

Quetta also should sell their franchise to one of the people who were bidding so heavily for Rawalpindi. I see one of them sitting together and the Nadeem Omar also tried to say something but stopped short of a joint partnership.

Uncle should just let it go and see what the new generation is capable to do.

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

Deepinder Singh Airee is an aboslute gun player and should be selected and no one has even an idea who he is.

Sometimes I do not understand rich people.

Binura Fernando is better than Shaheen by a country mile. No bids. No interest.

Scratching my head tbh.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Brendon mcmullen also goes unsold.
Sad tbh

 

[Fenrir]

Who cares?

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

Who cares?

Please do not give such replies because no matter how I reply to it, this will sound rude and harsh.

PSL has international foreign rights & the best way to grow the league and do economically well is by having attraction of fans in other territories. If hard core cricket fans of a nation are not interested in the first ever PSL auction where many of their country cricket stars are listed, the ordinary casual will have 0 interest in watching the game hence no reason for any Australian broadcaster to pick up PSL.

The entire point of the auction is also to raise the profile of PSL and get fan engagement from all over the world.

So yes, I care, the PCB cares, Walee Tech that bought foreign rights of PSL cares, & every one posting in this forum who is linked to cricketing eco system has a stake in it.
