The Pakistan Super League (PSL) has long been a breeding ground for unearthing emerging stars, and its 10th edition promises no less. With young guns ready to showcase their skills on the grand stage, fans are set to witness the rise of several promising cricketers. From explosive batters to lethal bowlers, PSL 10 is shaping up as a platform where the stars of tomorrow will shine today.
Shahzaib Khan
Let’s get the obvious out of the way. Shahzaib had already garnered attention for his fearless stroke play but his performances at the U19 Asia Cup have already started debates about his graduation to the national side in near future. Known for his ability to anchor an innings while accelerating when needed, the young batter could be a game-changer for whichever side calls his name.
Mohammad Riazullah
The 17-year-old right-handed batter has quickly made a name for himself at the Under-19 stage. Primarily a top order batter, Riazullah has the ability to play in the midle-order and has multiple gears to his game which could prove to be crucial in the shortest format of the game.
Muhammad Huzaifa
The left-arm spinner made headlines for his record breaking display against Japan in the U19 Asia Cup which underlines his potential as one of the most promising spinners in the country.
Ali Raza
A young pacer, who is adored by former West Indian pacer Ian Bishop, Ali Raza was instrumental in Pakistan U19’s run to the semi-final of the recently concluded Asia Cup. At just 16-years-old, he could develop into a fine fast bowler in the future.
Azan Awais
The 20-year-old left-handed opener has already made a mark with his consistent performances in domestic cricket. Azan’s solid technique and ability to adapt to different match situations make him a player to watch for the future.
Hasan Nawaz
Hasan Nawaz is a naturally aggressive batter who has been part of PSL before. His attacking approach at the top of the order could provide the fireworks that the fans crave.
Maaz Sadaqat
Another left-handed batter, Maaz has been a consistent performer in the domestic circuit. His style and composure under pressure make him a valuable asset for the coming season.
Saad Masood
Already part of Peshawar Zalmi, Saad has represented Pakistan’s U13 and U19 teams while also taking part in the short-lived Pakistan Junior League. An aggressive right-hander, the future appears bright for the 20 year old.
Shamyl Hussain
Long touted as a great hope for Pakistan’s cricketing future, Shamyl has failed to find consistency in the highest form of domestic cricket. However, with the age on the 20-year-old’s side, he still has plenty of time to regain his form which helped Islamabad United call his name in the previous PSL draft.
The Rising Stars’ Impact
The PSL has consistently given young and emerging players the chance to share the stage with seasoned international stars, and PSL 10 will be no exception. Players like Shaheen Afridi and Shadab Khan once emerged from this platform, and the likes of Shahzaib Khan, Riaz Ullah, Ali Raza, and others could follow in their footsteps.
These youngsters bring not only talent but also the hunger to prove themselves on one of the biggest stages of cricket. PSL 10 is not just a tournament; it’s an audition for a brighter future in Pakistan cricket.
The eyes of the cricketing world will be on these emerging stars, and for fans, the excitement lies in discovering who will rise to the occasion and leave a lasting legacy.
Note: The list does not include the likes of Hunain Shah, Ubaid Shah, Saad Baig, Mehran Mumtaz as they have already performed in the previous PSL season
