If this year’s PSL isn’t a culmination of drama, I don’t know what is. It started with hype about sending back players allegedly involved in fixing and corruption and within weeks, #PSLFinalLahore was trending because ‘cricket was coming home.’ I believe, Pakistani cricket and unpredictability are synonymous. I still stand by it. Who would have imagined these foreign players openly talking about going to Pakistan and fulfilling the long lost dreams of the local cricket-deprived fans? Who would have imagined that to actually happen?

PSL 2017 had its highs and lows, but as cliché it may sound, cricket was the winner. The PCB undertook the task of cleaning the game, setting up high standards for themselves in the future as well as giving people around the world something to look forward to. The finale may not have been as interesting as expected, but all’s well if it ends well. Players were sent back from Sharjah to Pakistan, people became social media trolls, and Afridi retired (looks like, this time it’s for real). But amidst all the praise and critique and (Melo) drama, there were some really memorable moments.

Darren Sammy: But first, let me take a selfie

Darren Sammy is a true Carribean by heart. You cannot stop yourself from smiling when the Windies decide to get goofy. The most memorable moment happened right after he took a stunning catch against the Karachi Kings. Immediately after the dive, he got the Peshawar Zalmis to pose for a mock selfie. And that became his signature celebration every time his team got a breakthrough. And, it wasn’t just once or twice, Sammy did the phone-less selfie action on various instances.

Then again, he obliged a field intruder by clicking a picture with him. Sammy has been winning hearts all over the world. First it was in India at the World T20, then with the commentating stint at IPL. This time it was Pakistan’s turn to swoon over him.
