The player’s draught event for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 8 was held on Thursday in Karachi, and all six franchises chose their players for the upcoming season, but some players were left out, and fans are baffled as to why.
PSL franchises didn’t pick Hafeez, Kamran, and Ahmad Shahzad
For the PSL 8, Peshawar Zalmi selected 17 players, while the other franchises selected 18 players each. The Zalmis will reveal their 18th player later. Former Pakistan captain Mohammad Hafeez, wicket-keeper batter Kamran Akmal, opening batter Ahmad Shahzad, and all-rounder Sohail Tanveer, on the other hand, have not been selected by any franchise.
