KARACHI: Quetta Gladiators have retained opener Will Smeed for remaining Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 7.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) shared that Smeed has been retained for complete tournament as Dan Lawrence’s replacement.
“Quetta Gladiators have decided to carry Will Smeed, who was initially a replacement for James Vince, as Dan Lawrence’s replacement for the entire tournament,” PCB shared.
So far, Gladiators have won single game out of four they have played this year. They will meet Lahore Qalandars on Monday which will be last contest of PSL 7’s Karachi phase.
With Australia’s historic tour to Pakistan is just around the corner, the two compatriots have thrown their weight for the tour scheduled from March 4 to April 5, while speaking to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) digital.
The left-handed explosive batter – Dunk, who is representing the Qalandars in this year’s PSL thinks that it is important that the cricket is coming back to Pakistan, while also hoping that the fans will enjoy good performances regardless of where they’re coming from.
But as the comeback partnership grew above 50, Raza struck his sixth ball, from Nawaz, for six. He added another in the following over, from Umaid, and hit Naveen for three fours in five balls. He also took a pair of boundaries from Naseem Shah. Raza’s efforts did not allow Qalandars to bat their entire 20 overs, but the league leaders had plenty of room to win for the fifth time in six games.
