Former Pakistan cricket captain Shahid Afridi Thursday said even he does not know yet which team he will be a part of in the seventh edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
Afridi said the owners of Multan Sultans and Quetta Gladiators love him, and that he will leave it up to them to decide which team he will play for in the next season of PSL.
Earlier, Afridi had shown the desire to play for Quetta. Afridi has already represented Peshawar, Karachi and Multan franchises in PSL so far and is keen to add a new team cap in his illustrated career before saying a final goodbye to the shortest form of the game that has emerged in this century inspired by his explosive batting skills.
A day earlier, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and the PSL franchises held consultations over the schedule for the PSL draft and the league itself. Further consultations between PCB and the PSL franchises are expected to be held today (Wednesday) too.
The PSL draft is likely to be held on December 6 and 8, as per sources. It was proposed that the first phase of PSL-7 start from Karachi on January 25 and the second phase start from February 5 in Lahore.
The sources that the arrival of teams and foreign players in Karachi for the league is likely to start from January 15.
