The player draft for the 2024 Pakistan Super League was held on 13 December 2023 at the National Cricket Academy, Lahore.[1][2] Before the draft, teams were allowed to retain a maximum of eight players and make transfers.[3][4]

Background

[edit]

The Pakistan Cricket Board announced that Quetta Gladiators will have the first pick in the draft.[5] A total of 485 foreign players registered for the tournament.[6]

Each team had the right to exercise one wildcard pick. Each team had a right-to-match card which allowed franchises to buy back a maximum of one player they have released by paying a set fee in each category.[4]

Transfers

[edit]

Hasan Ali and Islamabad's first round silver pick were traded from Islamabad United to Karachi Kings in return for Imad Wasim and Karachi's second round silver pick.[7][8] Iftikhar Ahmed and Quetta's first round platinum pick were traded from Quetta Gladiators to Multan Sultans in exchange for Rilee Rossouw and Multan's first round silver pick.[9][10] Naseem Shah and Quetta's third round platinum pick were traded from Quetta Gladiators to Islamabad United in exchange for Mohammad Wasim, Abrar Ahmed and Islamabad's first round platinum pick.[11][12] Shan Masood and Multan's fourth round silver pick were traded from Multan Sultans to Karachi Kings in exchange for Faisal Akram and Karachi's first round silver pick.[13] Karachi and Multan also swapped their first round diamond picks.[14]

Retained players

[edit]

On 7 December 2023, the retained player's list was announced.[4] The franchises were allowed to retain a maximum of eight players from the previous season. All the franchises fully utilized their quota of player retentions apart from Multan Sultans.[4]
