Peshawar Zalmi owner Javed Afridi has confirmed the arrival of seasoned batter James Vince for the remainder of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 11.
The owner confirmed the English batter’s arrival date on his X handle.
“Big welcome to James Vince as he joins the Zalmi squad tomorrow,” he wrote.
The 35-year-old was bought by Peshawar Zalmi for Rs30 million in the PSL 11 auction; however, after missing the first five matches, his involvement in the tournament remained uncertain.
It is worth mentioning that James Vince has previously represented Karachi Kings, Quetta Gladiators, and Multan Sultans.
Overall, he has played 56 matches, amassing 1544 runs, including a century and seven half-centuries.
Earlier today, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) extended the No-Objection Certificates (NOCs) for the Peshawar pace duo of Nahid Rana and Shoriful Islam, currently taking part in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 11.
The one-match extension was announced by the BCB in a press release statement.
“The decision has been made following a request from their PSL franchise Peshawar Zalmi, as well as the Pakistan Cricket Board,” the BCB statement read.
“Shoriful Islam and Nahid Rana were originally granted NOCs valid until 12 April 2026. Under the revised arrangement, both players have been permitted to remain in Pakistan for Peshawar Zalmi’s scheduled PSL fixture on 13 April 2026,” it further added.
For the unversed, Peshawar Zalmi are unbeaten in the tournament and are at the top of the points table with four wins out of five games.
Their next match will be against Multan Sultans on April 13 at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi.
