Captaincy Picks

Mohammad Rizwan

The last few months have been nothing short of a fairy-tale for Mohammad Rizwan as the wicketkeeper-batsman played one sensational knock after another. His form in PSL 2021 has also been red hot. With 470 runs in 10 outings, the Multan Sultans skipper is the second leading run-scorer of the season. Not to forget, he is precise in his glovework behind the stumps.

Shahnawaz Dhani

The right-arm pacer has arguably been the most significant find of PSL 2021. Shahnawaz Dhani has troubled many prominent batters in the tournament and would like to shine in the Qualifier as well. In fact, the young fast bowler is currently the leading wicket-taker of the competition, with 20 wickets in nine outings, including two four-wicket hauls.
