English fast bowler David Willey prefers PSL over IPL, signs up for draft

Former England pacer David Willey, who previously represented Multan Sultans, has officially signed up for the PSL 2025 draft.

The registration process for foreign players for the PSL draft is ongoing, and players from England have also begun registering.

Willey made an impressive impact during the ninth edition of the PSL.

In the 11 matches he played, Willey claimed 15 wickets at an average of 20.40 and an economy rate of 7.46, finishing as the fourth-highest wicket-taker of the season.

His all-round performance in the final between Multan Sultans and Islamabad United was particularly notable, where he scored six runs off three balls and took a wicket.

With 19 PSL matches under his belt, Willey has proven to be a valuable asset for the Sultans, amassing a total of 28 wickets and contributing 66 runs.

It is pertinent to mention that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) decided to take the Pakistan Super League (PSL) draft to Balochistan for the first time in the league's history.

As per the announcement, the draft will take place in Gwadar, the port city of Pakistan's largest province, on January 11, 2025.
