Five Pakistani key players including Nasim Shah sold out in International T20 league

For the 2024 T20 tournament in South Africa, 122 players from 14 different countries have registered, including five Pakistani cricketers. According to the news website "Propakistani," the Pakistani players registered for the South African tournament are Nasim Shah, Mohammad Nawaz, Shaan Masood, Osama Mir, and Usman Qadir.

According to the report, Mohammad Nawaz, Shaan Masood, and Nasim Shah have been priced at $44,550 each (approximately 13.2 million Pakistani Rupees) as reserves, while Usman Qadir and Osama Mir have been placed in the category with a price of $22,275 each (approximately 6.6 million Pakistani Rupees).

It's worth noting that former Pakistani cricketer Hammad Azam has also registered for the tournament as an American player. It should be noted that last year, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) did not grant a No-Objection Certificate (NOC) to Pakistani players for participation in auctions.

Furthermore, it's important to mention that the team owners for the South African T20 tournament are from India, which has made it unlikely for Pakistani players to have contracts with these teams
