History has been made in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season nine, with three brothers, all fast bowlers, joining the same team. After signing up pacer Naseem Shah, Islamabad United has also made his younger brothers Hunain and Ubaid Shah a part of their team.
The player’s draft ceremony of PSL nine was held in Lahore in which the formation of teams for the ninth edition of Pakistan Super League 2024 was completed.
Franchise owners, Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Management Committee Zaka Ashraf, and cricketers participated in the event.
Naseem Shah’s younger brother Hunain Shah made a splash in the National T20 Cup while Ubaid Shah is part of the Pakistan Under-19 team that is currently playing in the Asia Cup in Dubai.
Islamabad United named Hunain and Ubaid Shah in their emerging category squad for PSL nine. Naseem Shah left Quetta Gladiators and became a part of Islamabad United even before the draft.
This is the first time that three brothers have been included in a team together and all three are fast bowlers.
