Pakistan’s Mohammad Nawaz and Sahibzada Farhan have secured deals with Hobart Hurricanes for the upcoming Global Super League (GSL), scheduled to be held in Guyana from July 10 to 18.
The duo joins an exciting international lineup in what has quickly become one of the more intriguing T20 leagues on the calendar.
The all-rounder ability of Mohammad Nawaz and the attacking flair of Sahibzada Farhan at the top-order make them valuable additions for the Australian outfit.
Meanwhile, fellow Pakistanis Saud Shakeel and Khawaja Nafay have also been cleared for participation. Saud will don the colours of Guyana Amazon Warriors, the 2023 CPL champions, while Nafay awaits the announcement of his team.
