The players' draft for CPL 2019 was announced on Thursday with Irfan being the only Indian in the list. We expect that this year's tournament will be no different," said CPL Tournament Operations Director Michael Hall. Irfan has not been a part of the Indian Premier League in the previous two seasons. A record 536 players from 20 overseas countries and the West Indies have been included in CPL 2019 players' draft. Two year's ago, Irfan's elder brother Yusuf could not play in the Hong Kong T20 League after failing to get NOC from BCCI.
