How PSL Draft Works?
Franchises choose players for their 18-person squads in the PSL Draft from five different categories. Each team has a certain pick order that is chosen by PCB at random for each team. Following consultation, the franchise chooses a player from a list of those in each category. In that division, the cost for each player is predetermined.
