Psl 2021 News

The PSL 2021 clash between Gladiators and Qalandars on Tuesday got a little bit too competitive as Quetta skipper Sarfaraz Ahmed exchanged verbal blows with Shaheen Afridi, who hit the latter on the head with a bouncer. Sarfaraz asked Shaheen to ‘take it easy’ and the comment baffled the youngster.

Faf du Plessis, who's set to play for Quetta Gladiators under Sarfaraz Ahmed, has asserted that he is very much like Virat Kohli as a captain while MS Dhoni is different to both of them. The Proteas batter also went on to add that he really enjoys playing under different captains.

Shimron Hetmyer will be making his Pakistan Super League (PSL) debut in the UAE leg of the tournament as the Windies batter has been picked up by Multan Sultans as a replacement player. Meanwhile, Rashid Khan, who featured in the first half of PSL 2021, will be returning to Lahore Qalandars.

On Tuesday, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) conducted a ‘replacement draft’ for the rest of PSL 2021, in which both Andre Russell and Shakib Al Hasan were snapped up by the franchises. Barring the duo, Martin Guptill, Litton Das, Usman Khawaja and James Faulkner were among the names picked.
