Mohammad Rizwan led Multan Sultans will now have to look for replacements as three players will not be available for HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) season seven due to the West Indies tour of India.

West Indies' Rovman Powell, Odean Smith, and Dominic Drakes were named in the white-ball squad against India, therefore, they won't be available to represent Sultans this year.

Johnson Charles, selected by Multan Sultans in the supplementary and replacement draft as a partial replacement, will now be part of the entire PSL for Multan Sultans.

Meanwhile, Odean Smith's cover was Dominic Drakes, but now both players will represent West Indies. Sultans will probably announce their replacements soon.

It must be noted that West Indies and India series will start from February 6 and conclude on February 20. Both sides will play three T20Is and as many ODIs.
