Australian pacer Ben Dwarshuis is set to rejoin defending champions Islamabad United for the remaining matches of the upcoming HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) 10, which is scheduled to begin on Saturday.

The tournament, which was briefly suspended last week due to rising cross-border tensions with India, is set to resume on May 17 with Karachi Kings facing Peshawar Zalmi at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Dwarshuis was selected by Islamabad United in the Gold category during the PSL 10 draft. He made his debut in the marquee league this year and has taken four wickets in five matches so far.

"We are delighted to announce that Australian all-rounder Ben Dwarshuis will be returning to Pakistan for the remainder of HBL PSL X," Islamabad United stated in a media release.

"A familiar face in red, Ben's return adds further depth and balance to the star-studded lineup of the Pakistan Super League. We look forward to welcoming him back." 

Before Dwarshuis, South Africa's Rassie van der Dussen and England's Alex Hales had already confirmed their return to Islamabad United for the remaining matches.
