Afridi, Rizwan And Rauf Headline BBL Overseas Drafts
Shaheen Shah Afridi: Pakistan stars Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohammad Rizwan and Haris Rauf emerged as the most sought-after picks in the Big Bash League (BBL) overseas draft, with Afridi going No. 1 overall on Thursday. In total, seven players from Pakistan were selected.
Almost every club in the BBL overseas draft had their eyes on Afridi, who entered the draft for the first time with full-season availability. Brisbane Heat, holding the first overall pick, didn’t hesitate to snap up the left-arm quick, adding him to an already formidable pace unit featuring Spencer Johnson, Michael Neser and Xavier Bartlett.
Rauf will be back with the Melbourne Stars after the club used their retention pick to fend off the Adelaide Strikers, who attempted to grab him with pick No.2.
