Islamabad United is anticipated to welcome Pakistani fast bowler Naseem Shah to their squad for the upcoming season of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 9.
Reports suggest that negotiations with Naseem Shah are reaching the final stages, as he faces challenges in finalizing his deal with Peshawar Zalmi. Furthermore, Islamabad United is engaged in talks with Quetta Gladiators for a potential trade involving Naseem Shah.
They have shown a willingness to swap him for any player from the Quetta Gladiators’ lineup.
In the midst of these discussions, Quetta Gladiators have formally requested a two-day window during which Islamabad United will refrain from releasing Faheem Ashraf, Shadab Khan, and Azam Khan, according to reliable sources. Notably, Azam Khan may not be available for Quetta Gladiators during this period.
As the PSL 9 draft approaches in mid-December, following the conclusion of the National T20 Cup, the cricketing community eagerly awaits the final decisions and potential team changes in the lead-up to the exciting season ahead.
