Player’s Draft of Hundred 2025 took place on March 12, but there were no Pakistani players selected for the men’s or women’s teams. Several known Pakistani cricketers enrolled in the draft, but none managed to attract the interest of the franchises for the next edition of the tournament.
The one hundred 2025 will feature several high -profile players after franchise sales during the low season. A total of 270 national players and 350 abroad were recorded in the project, with the tournament that will begin on August 5. A joker project will take place in May, allowing teams to add two more players.
Shadab Khan, Naseem Shah and Mohammad amir amn UNSOLD Players
A total of 50 Pakistani players enrolled in the Draft of Hundred 2025: they went through the women’s draft and 45 for men. The best T20 stars like Shadab Khan, Naseem Shah, Mohammad Amir, Saim Ayub, Imad Wasim and Azam Khan were on the list of men.
None of the eight franchises selected any Pakistani player, raising concerns due to the depth of the talent. Pakistan’s female cricketers have previously struggled to get contracts in the league. This is the first time in the history of the tournament that there were no male players from Pakistan.
Naseem Shah joined the project with the highest price of the reservation among Pakistani players at £ 120,000. Imad Wasim and Saim Ayub established their base price at £ 78,500, while Shadab Khan, Hasan Ali and Mohammad Hasnain listed £ 63,000.
Mohammad Amir and Azam Khan were priced at £ 52,000, while several others, including Mohammad Abbas and Haider Ali, were registered without a fixed price.
The absence of Pakistan players from one hundred 2025 raises concerns
The absence of Pakistani players from one hundred 2025 has aroused concerns about a possible “gentle ban”, especially after several franchises of the Premier League Indiana (IPL) invested in teams before the season. Pakistani cricketers have been excluded from IPL from the 2008 horror attacks in Mumbai.
Four teams from the hundreds of Invincibles (Mumbai Indians), Original Manchester (Lucknow Super Giants), North Superchargers (Sunrisers Hyderabad) and Southern Brave (Delhi Capitals) – are partially or completely owned by IPL teams. Even in the Sa20 League in South -Africa, no Pakistani player has participated.
Revelated: Why were Pakistani players not chosen in the Draft of one hundred 2025?
According to a report from Wisden, the main reason why Pakistani male players were not selected in the Draft of one hundred 2025 is due to international commitments.
Pakistan is scheduled to play hatred and T20is against the western Indies from the end of July to mid-August, to collide with one hundred (August 5-31). They could also play a T20i series against Afghanistan before the Asia Cup begins in September.
Franchises generally hesitate to choose players with uncertain schedules. Last year, Shaheen Shah Afridi retired from the hundreds of personal reasons, but then tried to play at the Global T20 of Canada.
However, the PCB denied its NOC, raising more concerns about the participation of Pakistani players in leagues abroad.
