5 Notable omissions from PSL draft

4. Nasir Jamshed

Out-of-international-action Nasir Jamshed was a very surprise omission from the PSL draft. The left-hand opening batsman was initially drafted in the Silver category and at $25,000 looked like a fair trade. The opener had been in limited-overs form in 2015 scoring 365 runs from 12 innings at an average of nearly 40 and a strike rate of 130+. He had just recently in September scored his maiden ton in the format and showed a lot of promise and grit in the recently concluded Bangladesh Premier League too. He, partnered with Ahmed Shehzad, has scored the 5^th-most runs as partners in T20s. Many would argue his average fielding being the cause of his omission but he is still a better fielder than many selected and Nasir, the batsman, is still enough to change the course of the match when he is going strong.
