The PSL 2021 Player Draft Thread (January 10)

HUM KISI KO MOON DIKHANY K QABIL NAHI RAHAY

Sohail Khan goes to Multan Sultan...:lol
 
Rizwan, Abdullah Shafique and Iftikhar are surprised exclusions till now
 
Interestingly Awais Zia Iftikhar uncle from Gold still unpicked...:lol
 
Disappointed with IU's picks so far.

Should go for a wicketkeeper and Iftikhar.

If Rohail doesn’t play it would be a waste of a pick. So hopefully he is going to play.
 
Lahore Qalandars anthem easily the best in all franchise cricket anthems!
 
Looking forward to seeing the local picks in the gold and silver rounds. That's where we see if good young players or TTFs get picked.
 
Zeeshan Ashraf is a solid pick considering LQ’s combination. They were lacking firepower and Zeeshan can provide some on his day and is a keeper too
 
zeeshan Ashraf and Rohail picked before Rizwan

Looks like these franchises dont know anything about cricket....but PP fans do
 
Danish Aziz for Karachi Kings, excellent pick,power hitter, great pick...:)
 
If Reece Topely is no selected for Eng your of Ind, it could be one of the best surprise picks. A tall lef arm pacer who can swing the ball at pace
 
Has one-legged Sammy finally retired? He wasn’t retained by Zalmi and he is not in the draft either.
 
Awais Zia still unpicked handy left handed batsman in T20 s ???
 
Karachi Kings have not convinced me with the picks they've made. Danish Aziz was a good pick, and so was Mohammad Nabi, but the others don't really stand out to me.

They need solid middle-order batsmen, not all-rounders. They're going for too many all-rounders, and that will ruin their balance. I don't see many middle order options either, but maybe Iftikhar could get picked again by KK, though it would be adding another all-rounder to the team.

They've put themselves in a weird place.
 
Saqib Mehmood in Silver is a steal but again availability is an issue
 
Haris is miles better than 90% of batsmen in this draft.

If teams want to pick garbage hacks like Salt and Masood then that’s on them.
 
Banton shouldn’t have been released by Zalmi. They probably did because he will be unavailable because of England’s tour of India, but he has got a tremendous future.

Nonetheless, Miller is a fantastic pick. He is a brilliant white ball cricketer. Would really shore up the fragile middle-order.
 
British Pakistani picked by PZ for Mamoon to bash

He looks like a good bowler. Wish we could get Adil Rashid as well at some point, top white ball leggie.

Not everyone is a coward like Moeen.
 
Qais Ahmed is a pretty good T20 bowler who gets overshadowed by other Afghan spinners. Good pick
 
How on earth is Rizwan so overlooked in PSL? It was a travesty to pick Walton ahead of him last year but if that mistake isn't getting corrected this year then what is going on!

Open your eyes. I cant emphasise this enough. He is a specialist keeper at this level.

Kamran Akmal (hes like 50 years old)
Rohail Nazir
Zeeshan Ashraf
Sarfaraz
Azam Khan

are all clearly rated higher than him. You've got to be able to bat!

So is Shan Masood and Rizwan going to open the batting?
 
Supplementary picks for some teams considering the unavailability of their selections at some point would be really important
 
Has one-legged Sammy finally retired? He wasn’t retained by Zalmi and he is not in the draft either.

I'm sure they'll find some sort of mentor type role for him.

Money for doing nothing as they tend to do.
 
Qais Ahmad to Quetta Gladiators, spinners will dominate on Pakistani pitches...:)
 
If Imam-ul-Haq can keep wickets well, he'd actually be useful in ODI cricket. Still, T20 is not his bread-and-butter.
 
Imam ul Haq goes to Peshawar Zalmi, bad pick.

Zeeshan Malik, Abdullah Shafique and Iftikhar not getting picked yet is shocking imo.
 
A lot of good bowling lineups this year, but the same cannot be said for the batting. It looks weak in almost every team.
