HBL PSL to grow every year – Mohammad Nabi
Karachi, 24 February 2021:
Mohammad Nabi, the former Afghanistan captain, hopes HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) will grow every year and has the potential of grooming young talent.
The 36-year-old Afghanistan all-rounder is representing defending champions Karachi Kings this year after a stint with Quetta Gladiators in the inaugural edition in 2016 in a globetrotting Twenty20 league career.
His hard hitting batting and effective off-spin has earned him stints in leading T20 leagues across the globe.
Nabi said HBL PSL is progressing well. “The HBL PSL is producing good players and the league is growing every year,” said Nabi. “When you produce good home talent the league goes up and I am sure that will definitely help.”
Nabi said he enjoyed his first outing with the Gladiators.
“I played for Quetta [Gladiators] in the inaugural event. There were some good performances and I enjoyed that event. This time it is my second stint and representing the defending champions is a great honour.”
Reflecting on becoming part of Karachi Kings, Nabi, who smashed a 14-ball 30 with three sixes and two fours to help the title defenders beat his previous team by seven wickets in this edition’s opener, said: “This is a champion team and I wish we could make them champions again. I am in Karachi after 12 years. I played for Pakistan Customs for two years in 2008 and 2009 so I have good memories of the city.”
Nabi recalled meeting with Pakistan Premier Imran Khan in November last year when the great all-rounder visited Kabul. The Afghan cricket team presented a signed bat to Imran Khan.
“Meeting Prime Minister of Pakistan was exciting,” reminisces Nabi. “We had lunch and a photoshoot with him. We asked him to give us a series with Pakistan and he has promised a series. We enjoyed that meeting and discussed some cricket things with him.”
Nabi expects fireworks and surprises from Afghanistan in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup later this year.
“We are preparing well and our best T20 players are available,” said Nabi. “Some are playing T20 leagues the world over. Rashid [Khan], Mujeeb [ur Rahman] and I are all playing and we will do well this time.”
Nabi reckons cricket has become the number one sport back home and the said that the younger generation was attracted to the sport. “Cricket is now our number one sport and in the last 20 years, it has grown by leaps and bounds. The younger generation is motivated. Cricket is a game, which brings smile to the faces of people of our country and young generation is attracted to the game.
“Our players are doing well at U16, U19 level and all the youngsters coming to the national team are doing well.
“Cricket will grow further in Afghanistan.”

Great to see Nabi in Pakistan and Imad's comments about him being their best bowler speaks volumes about his value to the side.

Qais Ahmed's brilliant spell has dragged Quetta back into this game, and could hand them their first win of PSL6!

Rameez was mocking him when he came in to bat at 4. This 190 odd is mainly due to him more than Babar Azam!

How can Rashid be in PSL? Is he not going to play for Afghanistan?
In the auction 4-5 guys were picked.
Well, unless they have already spoken with their Board and the Board has said that they will be allowed to take part in the PSL and get NOCs for it.

HBL PSL 7: Afghanistan players likely to skip Lahore-leg
Four Afghanistan players are currently part of the HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) season seven
The Afghanistan cricket team will arrive in Bangladesh later this month to play three one-day internationals and two Twenty20 matches, the Bangladesh Cricket Board said as the visitors seek to bolster their 2023 World Cup qualifying bid.
The Bangladesh-Afghanistan ODIs are part of the competition and will take place at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong on February 23, 25 and 28, the BCB said late Thursday.
Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka will host the two T20 matches on March 3 and 5.
Four Afghanistan players are currently part of the HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) season seven. Franchises may lose the services of Rashid Khan (Afghanistan), Mohammad Nabi (Karachi Kings), Hazratullah Zazai (Peshawar Zalmi) and Rahmanullah Gurbaz (Islamabad United).
The second leg of HBL PSL 7 is starting from February 10 while Afghanistan will hold a seven-day training camp in the northeastern city of Sylhet before the start of the ODI series.
The participation of these players is highly uncertain in the later stages of HBL PSL 7 now.

Not many afghans registered and Mujeeb not getting picked was something shocking. He is good enough to be part of any PSL side.. Very good bowler he is...
Nabi joining Karachi squad is a good thing for them.

Yeah the lack of love for Mujeeb is kinda shocking - honestly the guy deserves to be picked up in most white ball international teams - let alone these leagues. Don't think any batter picks him too well

Mujeeb has seriously declined in recent times. He has struggled with injuries and isn't even being selected for Afghanistan.

Yeah he isn't the same anymore. In the national team, he has basically been replaced by AM Ghazanfar, who is playing a similar role but doing it much better.
Afghan spinners are pretty good but batsmen have worked them out.Rashid Khan used to be unplayable but now May batsmen hit him out of the ground.
Mumbai can have him.I will look at it from a different angle.PSL saved a lot of money.Mumbai Indian by 4.6cr INR means 15cr PKR .
Out of budget for PSL
