Multan Sultans, the newest entrant into the Pakistan Super League, picked Shoaib Malik, Kieron Pollard, and Kumar Sangakkara as a part of the pre-draft process.
Malik and Pollard were placed under the Platinum category, while the Diamond category consists of Sangakkara and Tanvir.
Wasim Akram, the director of the franchise, welcomed the addition of Kumar Sangakkara into the set-up.
He said, "Kumar is a master class, and over the time he has outshined as one of the most consistent T20 players, be it his blistering strokes or splendid glove work behind the stumps, he has contributed amazingly to the T20 format across the globe".
