5 Foreign cricketers to watch out for in the PSL 2

After the success of their inaugural season, the second season of PSL is all set to kick off from 9th February in Dubai. The five teams are slated to play a total of 24 matches which includes the playoffs as well as the finals which would be played in Lahore. With a mix of the international stars along with the crusaders in the domestic circuit, PSL promises to be bigger and better.

It would be willing to produce some exhilarating cricketing action this year too. Alongside the presence of local cricketers, it’s the foreign cricketers that add up to the charm of the league. Ever since the inception of T20 leagues like IPL and BBL, we’ve seen foreign cricketers gain more accolades and recognition playing in front of huge crowds. Here we have a look at five foreign players to watch out for in PSL 2017:-

1. Brendon McCullum (Lahore Qalandars)

The now retired, Brendon McCullum for years has donned the aggressor’s role while opening the Kiwi batting, scoring runs at a frenetic pace. Representing the Lahore Qalandars, he’s expected to play a double role in the team, i.e. the role of skipper as well as a mentor. He recently gave a pep talk to the Lahore Qalandar players ahead of the action packed T20 league.

The fundamental principle of McCullum’s batting has always been his unorthodox stroke playing abilities, a trait which comes straight from his coaching manuals. Few players have been able to generate the extent of fireworks as McCullum has at the crease. He’s surely going to be a major draw in the PSL.
