Peshawar ZalmiDarren Sammy’s Peshawar Zalmi will be defending the title they won in front of a euphoric crowd at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. Peshawar started off slowly last time around but were able to pick up pace right when it mattered the most. They have been replaced by the likes of Afridi, wicketkeeper Muhammad Rizwan and England’s limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan. The former Pakistan skipper is a canny operator of his bowlers and he has a whole host of bowlers to choose from. Sohail joins a formidable bowling attack that features spinners Yasir Shah and Sunil Narine alongside Bangladeshi fast-bowling sensation Mustafizur Rehman.
