Lahore Qalandars Team Squad 2021

Lahore Qalandars franchise is the most talked franchise in PSL and unfortunately for all the wrong reasons. In the last four seasons, they have not been able to win consistently which leads them to be knocked out before the play-off stage. Lahore Qalandars is known as LQ and their home ground for this year will be Gaddafi Stadium. LQ is owned by Rana brothers who are well-known businessman based in Qatar. Aqib Javed who is the Head Coach of Lahore Qalandars has picked Lahore Qalandars squad 2021 PSL in the draft ceremony held in November last year.

The Lahore Qalandars squad PSL 6 have some big hitters lined up like Chris Lynn and David Wiese. In earlier editions, they were unfortunate to face the injuries of players at the wrong moment which impacted their team balance and strategy.

Imad Wasim is one of the key players in Karachi kings squad 2021 who is a very good all-rounder plus an experienced leader who captained the Pakistan U19 team as well as the national team. For this year, Karachi Kings squad for PSL 6 has some surprise additions as well as the changes in the coaching staff.

Peshawar Zalmi Team Squad 2021

Peshawar Zalmi known as PZ is the most popular and profitable franchise of Pakistan Super League. The franchise is owned by the CEO of Haier Pakistan under the ownership of Mr. Javed Afridi. PZ is also another franchise that joined hands with PCB from the inaugural edition of PSL which was played back in 2015.

The Peshawar zalmi squad 2021 captain is yet again named Darren Sammy who has lead them very well from the first season so it was expected and we think it’s a very good decision by the management of PZ.  The Peshawar zalmi squad 2021 pic revealed the complete squad for PSL 2021 which is as follows.

Kamran Akmal is the leading run-scorer from the franchise and Wahab Riaz is the leading wicket-taker from the franchise and both players are again part of Peshawar zalmi players 2021 squad.  This year Peshawar zalmi players PSL 6 has picked some very exciting local talent from Pakistan in the Silver, Emerging and Supplementary categories which are going to be announced in PSL 2021 Draft. As per PSL laws, every franchise has to play an emerging player in the line up so PZ has done their homework quite well for the fifth edition and has got an exciting bunch of young talent from Pakistan domestic and U19 circuit.

Multan Sultans Team Squad 2021

Multan Sultans is the sixth franchise which was added in the 3rd edition of Pakistan Super League at a very heavy price back then. The owners of Multan Sultans have changed last year because the previous owners had some financial problems so Ali Khan Tareen and his brother Alamgir Khan Tareen purchased the franchise rights at the highest ever price in PSL history. Last year, the franchise has had a poor show and couldn’t perform quite well they expected under the new owners of the franchise and management. However, for this year they made quite a lot of changes in the Multan sultans squad 2021 as well as in management and coaching team. The complete Multan sultans player’s name 2021 is as follows.

Multan Sultans: Mohammad Rizwan (c), Asif Afridi, Hammad Azam, Imran Tahir, Imran Khan Snr, Johnson Charles, Khushdil Shah, Mohammad Umar, Blessing Muzarabani, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Rilee Rossouw, Shahnawaz Dhani, Shan Masood, Shimron Hetmyer (partially available), Sohaib Maqsood, Sohaibullah, Sohail Khan, Sohail Tanvir, Usman Qadir and Muhammad Waseem.

The MS franchise has not been able to qualify for the BIG final yet but the changes in the Multan sultans squad for PSL 2021 seem like the franchise is very serious to perform BIG in this season and finally make it to the all-important final. Shahid Afridi, James Vince, Rillie Rossow and Sohail Tanveer are some of the key players in the Multan sultans squad for PSL 6.  Some fans believe that MS made a mistake by picking Shahid Afridi in the platinum category for Multan sultans players 2021 but it is worth noticing that Afridi is still in red hot form and recently had a very good Lanka Premier League and he looks to be in very good form.

The PSL 2021 Multan sultan players list has had a lot of changes but the interesting thing is they have reserved the services of Andy Flower as Head Coach of the franchise who recently helped England Cricket Team to win the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. Andy is known for his excellent strategic moves and decisions in different T20 leagues he has provided his services so far and the same is expected from him in PSL for the Multan Sultans franchise. MS has a good bunch of spin and fast bowling options in the line up which makes them a strong team in the bowling department and we all know taking wickets is the way to go in the shorter format to stop the flow of runs.
