The Melbourne Stars have signaled their interest in retaining Haris Rauf for the upcoming season, a choice supported by his impressive record of 30 wickets in the Big Bash.
Mohammad Hasnain is also anticipated to make a return to the competition after receiving clearance from the ICC to resume bowling following a ban related to an illegal action.
The draft is slated for September 3 and will encompass four rounds, with teams permitted to pick a minimum of two and a maximum of three foreign players overall.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
