Twenty Pakistan players have been selected in the draft for the upcoming Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) in 2023. The BPL's ninth season is set to take place from January 5 through February 16, 2023.
Mohammad Rizwan, Haris Rauf, Iftikhar Ahmed, Naseem Shah, and Shoaib Malik are just a few of the draft that different teams made. The ace pacer of Pakistan, Shaheen Afridi, has also been selected; however, his participation in the league is based on his injury, as he suffered a knee injury during the recent 2022 T20 World Cup final in Australia.
