Expert Analysis on Players Retention and Release List for PSL 2025
Excellent retentions by Peshwar Zalmi for PSL 10. Babar Azam, Mohammad Haris, Saim Ayub is their main core of batters. Hope they will pick one overseas player in platinum category hopefully a power hitter batter. They also retained their core spin attack in shape of Arif Yaqoob,Mehran Mumtaz and Sufyan Moqim. Saim Ayub will also be handy spin option for the Peshawar Zalmi for PSL 10. Also they retained highly promising and emergy Ali Raza as fast bowler.But main critisim on their retention list is that they have not retained Salman Irshad/Khurram Shahzad/Aamer Jamal any of the fast bowler instead retained three spinners in their retention list for PSL 10.
