81 spots will be up for grabs in the player draft ahead of the 2025 edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) in Lahore on Monday, January 13. Islamabad United, Quetta Gladiators and Lahore Qalandars retained eight players each while Multan Sultans, Peshawar Zalmi and Karachi Kings retained seven. The likes of Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, Mohammad Amir and Haris Rauf among big names were all retained while Sarfaraz Ahmed's nine-year collaboration with the Gladiators came to an end.

The 10th season of the PSL is set to clash with the IPL, however, it may not be a bad thing after all. Yes, most of the unsold overseas players at the IPL auction became available for the PSL but since no international cricket and none of the other T20 leagues will be on simultaneously, the availability of players won't be an issue. Hence, the likes of Kane Williamson, David Warner, Daryl Mitchell, Tabraiz Shamsi, Jason Roy and Mustafizur Rahman are among 43 players in the platinum category up for draft.

Among the locals, Aamer Jamal, Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Hasnain, Mohammad Nawaz, Sarfaraz Ahmed and Khushdil Shah are among the top names in the diamond category to get a side. Lahore Qalandars will get the first pick in the first round of the platinum category, followed by the Kings, Gladiators, Zalmi, Sultans with the defending champions Islamabad United having the final pick. Out of 43 players, only 10 spots are available in platinum category.
