For Quetta Gladiators, Mohammad Amir is the only player to be finalized in the platinum category.
Islamabad United has confirmed the inclusion of Shadab Khan, Naseem Shah, and Imad Wasim in the platinum category, while Karachi Kings have no players in this category.
From Multan Sultans, Mohammad Rizwan and Osama Mir have been selected for the platinum category, while the decision between Iftikhar Ahmed and Abbas Afridi is pending and has been referred to the review committee.
Sources further revealed that due to voting on player names for other categories, the selection process has been delayed and the selection panel will review the final list, sending the confirmed names and categories to all franchises by tomorrow.
Additionally, a change in regulations for the Emerging Category has been made. If an emerging player has already represented Pakistan, they will be eligible for selection even if they are 23 years old.
