PSL 11 Retentions and Auction: Big Names, Big Money Expected

The excitement for HBL PSL 11 is growing fast as teams start retaining their key players and fans look forward to the upcoming auction.

Islamabad United have retained their captain Shadab Khan in the Platinum category for PKR 7 crore. Shadab is an important player for Islamabad because he contributes with both bat and ball and also leads the team well.

Lahore Qalandars have also retained their captain and main fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi in the Platinum category for PKR 7 crore. Shaheen is one of the best fast bowlers in Pakistan and has been the backbone of Lahore’s success in recent seasons.

Now, fans are waiting to see what price Peshawar Zalmi will set for their captain and star batter Babar Azam, who has also been retained in the Platinum category. Many believe Babar’s price could be around PKR 7 crore or even higher, as he is Pakistan’s biggest cricket star and a very consistent performer.

The base price for the Platinum category is PKR 1.40 crore, but big players usually go much higher during bidding. Many top Pakistani players will be available in the auction, including Mohammad Amir, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, Fakhar Zaman, Salman Ali Agha, Saim Ayub, Sahibzada Farhan, Faheem Ashraf, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Nawaz, Saud Shakeel, Shan Masood, Mohammad Haris, Haider Ali, and Azam Khan.

Fast bowlers like Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah are expected to get high prices because of their pace and international experience. Fakhar Zaman and Saim Ayub may also attract big bids due to their aggressive batting style. Mohammad Amir can also be expensive because of his experience in big matches.

There will also be strong competition for overseas players like Jason Roy, Alex Hales, James Vince, and others, as they have performed well in T20 leagues around the world.

The big question before the auction is: Who will be the most expensive player in PSL 11? Will it be Haris Rauf, Mohammad Amir, Fakhar Zaman, Saim Ayub, or someone else?

With so many big names available, PSL 11 auction is expected to be exciting, competitive, and full of surprises. 🏏🔥
