Detailed Report
Multan Sultans and Quetta Gladiators completed a four-player swap on the opening day of the trade window for the highly anticipated Pakistan Super League (PSL) 11 scheduled to run from March 26 to May 3.
Multan Sultans brought in Ahmed Daniyal and Jahanzaib Sultan, while Quetta Gladiators received Faisal Akram and Arafat Minhas as both franchises adjusted their squads ahead of the new season.
Daniyal had previously been retained in the Gold category by Multan Sultans, formerly Sialkot Stallionz, ahead of the historic PSL players auction. During the same auction, the franchise also signed Jahanzaib for Rs. 6 million.
Meanwhile, Quetta Gladiators had picked Faisal Akram and Arafat Minhas for Rs. 12.5 million and Rs. 11 million, respectively.
With the trade now completed, the two franchises have effectively swapped the four players, making key adjustments to their squads for the landmark 11th edition of the PSL, which will feature eight teams for the first time since the tournament began in 2016.
