It has now been reported that he will enter the BBL 12 draft. Going by his form in all three formats in recent years, there will be no wonder if teams start fighting for him, to get him in his squad.

Rizwan, on the other hand, has been the T20 specialist batter for Pakistan. And not to forget his keeping skills, the wicketkeeper-batter might get many offers in the upcoming player draft. Having said that the batter has been consistent in the other two formats too, this will be a great opportunity for him to showcase his potential to the Australian crowd.

Shaheen Afridi is also reportedly entering the BBL 12 draft alongside his other two teammates. The fans of Pakistan cricket are extremely excited to watch their favourite three shine in BBL. Haris Rauf, the Pakistan pace spearhead made a great impression in BBL earlier. It will be up to these experienced men to make their country proud in the upcoming season.
