Obviously Ben Dunk has to be one of them

But Colin Ingram, Alex Hales also good choices amongst batsman for me.

Bowling wise - not sure if many choices there but Ben Cutting or Chris Jordan probably?
 
Dale Steyn. Naam hi kafi hai
Imran Tahir
Munro
Jordan
Hales
Dunk
Lynn will come good if they reach knockouts
Tom Banton will be great next few years

We really need Maxwell, Warner, Stokes and Buttler.
 
LQ were all but out of the competition and everyone was making fun of them, but one player brought them out of bottom position , single-handedly and so far he the best overseas player.
 
Hard to pick one, but Multan definitely have the best overall contingent.

Russouw, Vince, Tahir and Moeen are quality. Batting wise they are both explosive and consistent.

Roy,Hales,Riley and Ronchi are also good.

Agreed. Multan also have Fabian Allen but he hasn't arrived yet. These guys have very defined roles/expectations, especially for a team who hasn't been together long at all compared to a team like CSK in IPL where several players have had the same roles for a number of years.

On the other hand Lahore gets a few great players every year but never figures out the right mix. Lynn should not be on the bench. Ben Dunk shouldn't have to clean up after Hafeez wastes a quarter of the match, but should come further up the order in his current form. Prasanna and Wiese are questionable picks and I don't really understand their value to this team as players.

Chris Jordan and Amir are a dream death-bowling duo on paper but it hasn't worked out as well as they would've liked basing it on the team results. But Jordan as a bowler, fielder and slogger should definitely be up there this year.
 
Jason Roy is probably the best player -- hasn't fully come to terms with Pakistani pitches i suppose.
 
Reputation:
Dale Steyn
Jason Roy
Alex Hales
Lynn

Performers:
Ben Dunk
Luke Ronchi (I think highest scorer)
Colin Munro
Rilee
Cutting

Tahir is a Pakistani so didn't count but he's been handy too.

7 of the top 10 batsmen are foreigners so obviously they have to be right up there. In a way it’s a bit sad that no «new» pakistani batsman are having impact.
