Lahore Qalandars have revealed their squad for the inaugural ExxonMobil Guyana Global Super League (GSL), set to take place from November 27 to December 7, 2024.

The team boasts a dynamic mix of international stars, seasoned local players, and talented graduates from their Player Development Program (PDP).

Key Pakistani players in the squad include Faheem Ashraf, wicket-keeper batter Muhammad Akhlaq, explosive opener Mirza Tahir Baig, and leg-spinner Arif Yaqoob. These players form the backbone of the Qalandars, as they aim to leave a mark in the tournament.

The overseas lineup features renowned cricketers such as South African wrist-spinner Tabraiz Shamsi, West Indian all-rounder Carlos Brathwaite, and England’s Tom Abell, Luke Wells, and Adam Rossington. Canadian pacer Kaleem Sana also strengthens the bowling attack.

Four graduates from the Qalandars’ PDP—fast bowlers Salman Mirza and Tayyab Abbas, top-order batter Mirza Tahir Baig, and all-rounder Muhammad Faizan—add youthful energy to the team.

Team owner Sameen Rana shared his excitement, “Participating in the GSL is a proud moment for us. It’s thrilling to see our PDP players getting international exposure. We are eager to represent our fans globally and perform to the best of our abilities in the Caribbean.”

The Qalandars, two-time PSL champions, will face the Guyana Amazon Warriors in the opening match on Wednesday, November 27, 2024.
