Umar Akmal, Iftikhar Ahmed and Many More Stars to be in Action During QeA 21:
The seventh round of Quaid-e-Azam Trophy 2021 will begin with Sindh topping the leaderboard followed by Central Punjab and Southern Punjab. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Northern and Balochistan are the bottom 3 sides so far at the end of round 6. We can expect a massive shakeup in the Points Table of Quaid-e-Azam Trophy 2021 as some new players have joined the teams. The players that left for the limited overs series against Bangladesh are now back in Pakistan and they will feature in the remainder of Quaid-e-Azam Trophy.
The first major change is in leadership role of Balochistan. Imran Butt has left the captaincy role of Balochistan in order to focus more on his batting. Wicket-Keeper batsman, Bismillah Khan will now lead Balochistan. To further strenghten their side, Balochistan have got Umar Akmal and Shan Masood in their side as well. Shan Masood is transferred from Sindh as he hadn’t played a single game for Sindh this season in Quaid-e-Azam Trophy.
