The second season of the much loved Pakistan Super League is all set to get underway in less than a week’s time. Teams are already assembling in Dubai to give the players a chance to get to know one another and to gel into a unit before the tournament kicks off. Lahore Qalandars who ended with the wooden spoon last season have former New Zealand skipper Brendon McCullum with them this year as the mentor and captain.

After arriving in Dubai McCullum tried to inspire his team with a pep talk, he had coach Paddy Upton for company as they interacted with the much younger members of the squad. The team management was quite pleased with that and Sameen Rana, the manager and COO of team Lahore Qalandars, told geo.tv that it was a great session which would definitely benefit the team.

“It was a great session, Brendon and Paddy spoke to the players about team strategy and how to move forward in the second edition of Pakistan Super League,” said Sameen.

McCullum also agreed that it was an opportunity for him to interact with the team and get to know them. “We had a first meeting here (in Dubai) today, it was great to get to know some guys we didn’t know before, some of guys have come through a players development program, have seen some of familiar faces as well. We had a very productive meeting, we can’t wait to get the tournament started, cricket action will be started in couple of days,” Brendon said in a video message.
