What expectations do you have from youngsters in PSL 5 squads?

[Subhan999]

A lot of youngsters in psl squads, which ones will stand out?

Zafar gohar
Musa
Rumman
Akif
Umer Khan
Zahid Mahmood
Arshad Iqbal
Shaheen
Haris Rauf
Shinwari
Ali Shafiq
Ilyas
Hasan Ali
Mohsin
Muhammad Aamir Khan
Hasnain
Naseem

Competition for spots is hotting up! Predict the next break through stars!

 

[thecrusade911]

Are there any young batsmen to watch out for?

 

[Subhan999]

Try the big bash League....

 

[Xoib]

Hope arshad Iqbal impresses in a few outings I think he is the best test prospect after Shaheen and Naseem but has been lost a bit in the domestic shuffle hope he finds himself back in the reckoning

 

[Titan24]

I will add these to the list too; Abdullah Shafi (SLA) who can bat a bit too. Abdul Nasir an all rounder from Quetta selected as emerging player by QG (Right hand batsman who also balls off spin), Aarish Ali Khan (SLA who is also part of Pak U19 WC squad) and can bat a bit too, Farzan Raja a pretty good leggy from LQ and has a pretty decent googly and leg spin with revs on it.

Also Zahid Mehmood wasn’t selected as it was an error from maybe KKs part.

 

[Angrez Pakistani]

I’m more excited about watching IPL this season. It’ll be exciting to watch some good emerging batting talent this season. PSL doesn’t offer THAT to me and that’ll be the downfall of PSL in both the short and long run.

Zeeshan Ashraf
Saif Badar
Rohail Nazir
Haider Ali
Ahsan Ali
Rizwan Hussain
Abdul Nasir
Khushdil Shah
Adil Amin
Hussain Talat
Mohammad Faizan
Amad Butt (For his hitting ability at the end)

So there are quite a few emerging names in batting to look forward to.

 

[Markhor]

I'm expecting most of them to rot on the bench while the journeymen hog the limelight.

 

[Xoib]

We.need some dynamic young bats who can perform and get in the LOI setup

 

[shamaan]

From the emerging players who will likely get games are

Akif javed
Ashraf
Rizwan hussain
Talat,
Arshad iqbal
Mohammed faizan
Khusdil shah
Abdul nasir
Rohail nazir
Aamir ali
Umer Khan


Slim chance
Ahsan ali,haider ali,badar,amir Khan.

 

[The Viper]

Ahsan's chances of being in the starting XI look slim now that Quetta have Roy.

Watson, Roy and Shehzad look like Quetta's top three.

 

[TeymurBlake]

Akif Javed and Rohail Nazir tbh. I would like to see how Umer Khan plays this season. If he performs well and gets wickets, he could be in contention for T20 World Cup. Could do with a left arm spinner.

 

[Hasan123]

They will be underused or won't play. A T20 league isn't a development ground for young cricketers anyway.

 

[Saj]

I hope they are just given a fair chance to showcase their skills, rather than just being there to carry the drinks and towels.

 

[Angrez Pakistani]

Zeeshan Ashraf
Saif Badar
Rohail Nazir
Haider Ali
Ahsan Ali
Rizwan Hussain
Abdul Nasir
Khushdil Shah
Adil Amin

Mohammad Faizan
Amad Butt (For his hitting ability at the end)

Meh... most of them are mediocre and the exceptions won’t get the game time they deserve. Four years of PSL has taught me enough of that lesson.

 

[Afhan Ali]

PSL quality is quite low because it gives us player like
Asif, Nawaz, Shadab etc

 

[Afhan Ali]

PSL 5 will also hype a player or two and then they will be found out in international cricket

 

[Bullet Drive]

Saddest part is no Abdullah Shafique or Zeeshan Malik: (

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Hope we find batters.

 

[reversehook]

hopefully the true youngsters and u19 guys get some/dexent game time rather than just warming the benches, i would rather they play then just learn off the field... wishful thinking, i know its a league for profits, its not lost on me, but thats the ideal scenario...

 

[Rellu_Katta]

I really hope that we find a decent spinner

hoping to see

1) Harris Rauf - after his BBL, he shld be on fire
2) Naseem Shah - The biggest star of the PSL with Harris
3) Mohammad Mohsin - Leggie who can hit big... could be interesting
4) Ammad Butt - Recent heroics in A side should push him to go big in PSL and get into national colours
5) Saif Badar - Again played decent knocks in U-23 tournament, can bowl part time.. looks cool head
6) Khushdil Shah - Need a hitter in middle and he could be it
7) Umer Khan - From last year to now, will be interesting to see how he has improved
8) Rohai Nazir - U19 captain, keeper, batsmen ... enough said
10) Zafar Gohar - Time for him to step up ... needed in the national team across formats
11) Haider Ali - not sure if he is in any if the team but i hope he is and performs
12) Zeeshan Ashraf - Surprise pick ... would be interesting to see how he performs

Great list but add also

Amir Khan
Aamir Ali
Arish
Usama Mir
Farzan Raja(He might play due to Seekkuge Prasanna being the other front line spin bowler in Qalandar squad)
Iqbal Arshad
Usman Qadir
Akif Javed
Mohammad Faizan(He will play for sure due to only emerging player of Qalandars)

Haider Ali was picked by Zalmi

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Barely no expectations as many of them would hardly get 1 or 2 games at most if they do get selected.

 

[Abdullah719]

Akif Javed
Ahmed Safi
Umer Khan
Arshad Iqbal
Mohammad Faizan
Mohammad Ilyas
Rohail Nazir
Amir Khan
Amir Ali
Haider Ali
Aarish Ali Khan
Azam Khan

These are the emerging players in the squads and each team has to play one of those in each game. Some of these guys should get a decent run of games.
