Islamabad United player retentions
These are the “Sherus” that Islamabad United management wants to retain for the upcoming edition of the Pakistan Super League. Let's take a look at these players.
| Player | Category |
| Shadab Khan | Platinum |
| Naseem Shah | Platinum |
| Imad Wasim | Diamond (Mentor) |
| Azam Khan | Diamond |
| Alex Hales | Gold |
| Faheem Ashraf | Gold (BA) |
| Colin Munro | Gold |
| Rumman Raees | Silver |
For some fans, it was shocking to see Alex Hales and Colin Munro in the Gold category. They didn't mind keeping players. However, they were against the idea of keeping these players in this high category. Fans argued that these players were getting old and young blood should be encouraged in the higher categories.
Shadab Khan remains while they got Imad Wasim for Hasan Ali. But the best trade they have made so far was Naseem Shah. He will be a valuable addition to their pace bowling attack as Imad fends off runs in the middle overs.
