Players who have registered for the draught include Reece Topley, Tom Curran, and Adil Rashid of England, Wayne Parnell, Lungi Ngidi, and Rassie Van Der Dussen of South Africa, Dasun Shanaka, and Wanindu Hasaranga of Sri Lanka, Nicholas Pooran of the West Indies, Evin Lewis, and Jimmy Neesham of New Zealand.

The PCB has already approved the selection of the following players for the draught: England’s Alex Hales, Dawid Malan, and Jason Roy; New Zealand’s Martin Guptill; South Africa’s Rilee Rossouw and David Miller; Afghanistan’s Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Mujeeb-ur-Rahman; Bangladesh’s Shakib-al-Hasan; Zimbabwe’s Sikandar Raza; and the Netherlands’ Colin Ackermann.

The draught will probably occur in the third week of November 2022, it should be emphasised.

The pick order for the draught has already been made public by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), with the defending champion Lahore Qalandars having the first choice.

Multan Sultans and Quetta Gladiators will be selected second and third, respectively. Karachi Kings and Islamabad United will make the fourth and fifth selections, respectively. Peshawar Zalmi will choose sixth, in the meantime.

A unique statistical tool was used to determine the outcomes of the next 17 rounds.

For the upcoming league season, the PCB has also finished renewing the local player category.

“The teams will now put forward relegation requests for the players before finalising retentions. After relegation requests are floated, all teams are given an opportunity to meet the player’s base category. If the player’s base category is not matched, the player may be relegated to a category below his base category,” the PCB said in a press release.

From February 9 to March 19, 2023, four locations—Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Multan—will host the event.
