LAHORE: After the HBL PSL 7, Pakistan Cup also provides a great opportunity for young and talented cricketers to display their skills to get a chance to represent Pakistan in the white-ball series against Australia.
Pakistan Cup is all set to commence from 2 March in four cities – Faisalabad, Islamabad, Lahore, and Multan.
Besides three Tests, Pakistan is to play three ODIs and one T20I against Australia scheduled to take place at the Pindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi from 29 March.
In this context, the PCB Saturday confirmed 16-player squads of six Cricket Associations teams for next month’s Pakistan Cup – the final tournament of the domestic season 2021-22. The squads have been finalized with the idea of providing opportunities to those young players who have given impressive performances in this year’s domestic season, which include HBL PSL 7.
The tournament will be held on a double-league basis from 2nd March and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa led by Iftikhar Ahmed will look to defend the title when they take on Raza Ali Dar-led Central Punjab at the Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad. Test leg-spinner Yasir Shah will lead Balochistan, while another leg-spinner and all-rounder Shadab Khan will lead Northern. Test fast bowler Mir Hamza will lead Sindh, which will meet Salman Ali Agha’s Southern Punjab on an opening day at the Multan Cricket Stadium.
The PCB will live stream group stage matches scheduled at the Multan Cricket Stadium. The decision to broadcast the semi-finals and final at the Multan Cricket Stadium will be taken in due course.
The tournament carries nearly PKR10million in prize money. The tournament winners will bag PKR5million, while the runners-up will receive PKR2.5million.
