Rahkeem Cornwall is a must pick. Dude is going to be a monster on these flat tracks.

 

[Mohsin]

Majority bakwaas trash

 

[Munna]

• Lahore Qalandars release Fakhar Zaman
• Karachi Kings release Mohammad Amir and Haider Ali
• Quetta Gladiators release Mohammad Nawaz and Umar Akmal
• Multan Sultans release Shahnawaz Dahani
• Peshawar Zalmi release Salman Irshad

 

[Munna]

No Imad Wasim, no Amir, no kachra Haider Ali, no sanda Sharjeel Khan.... Haider Azhar has really cleansed KK of 90% trash+toxicity (will have to tolerate Malik for another season but he's the least bakwas of all of them tbf)

 

[Patriot]

drop all Afghan players

 

[Munna]

Pakistan cricket ka 95% kachra is under this category!

 

[Mohsin]

Literally (and not even joking) it would be better for franchises to just skip the golf local picks and have smaller squad. Save money and no need to carry useless passengers. What a sad low-level state of affairs.

 

[Munna]

At least some promising young players in here

Shahzad, Arshad, Talat, Kamran, Musa, Omair, Farhan, Agha, Saud, Dahani and Qadir should be the players that can be selected. Is there 2 local Gold players or 1 allowed per squad??

 

[Cani]

disappointing that PSL was unable to rope in Trent Boult and Nicolas Pooran. both would have been hot picks

 

[Cani]

Sahibzada Farhan will probably the most popular pick amongst local options

 

[Giantsmm]

Imagine this being the list of platinum players available ast

 

[Munna]

Imagine this being the list of platinum players available ast

Even Tom Banton is there... If he gets picked this season, one of my partners will burn our first pick on him

 

[Munna]

No Wa$im Bhai

 

[Mohsin]

A new era of attack attack attack

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

First pick by Multan is David Willey LOL

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

What a joke of a pick by Multan

 

[Munna]

Willey won't even be the first pick even in his own home lol

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Karachi picks Pollard another Joke of a pick

 

[Fireworks11]

Karachi picks Pollard another Joke of a pick

Pollard is still a beast in T20 cricket, with the bat. His bowling is gone.

 

[Kaleem]

Lmao old ass Pollard

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Two retired players are first two picks of PSL

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Quetta picks Rutherford.

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Peshawar picks Noor Ahmad :fp another joke

 

[Fireworks11]

Multan went for bowling option instead of a batsman first

 

[Mohsin]

Lmao these picks

 

[Munna]

Ye ho kia raha hai

 

[Mohsin]

Looks like we'll retain Gurbaz imo, need an opener

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Why is no one picking Fakhar?

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Ye ho kia raha hai

Joke of a draft

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

LOL Quetta picks Amir

 

[Mohsin]

Why is no one picking Fakhar?

Because he's going back to Lahore, they do drama every season

 

[Kaleem]

Amir in platinum after releasing Naseem

 

[Munna]

KK has finally got rid of Amir... thank you Jobber Nadeem Saab

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

Lahore picks Fakhar what a surprise. Dramabaz

 

[Fireworks11]

Because he's going back to Lahore, they do drama every season

But technically the others could have picked him before Lahore?

 

[ASLI-PATHAN]

But technically the others could have picked him before Lahore?

Lahore would have used the joke of a system RTM
