As a result of the appointment of Wahab Riaz as the caretaker Sports Minister of Punjab, it is possible that he will not be able to participate in the upcoming edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL).
As per the detail provided by the fast bowler’s agent, he is expected to take the oath as minister on February 12th, and following that, he will decide whether or not he will participate in the PSL for the following season.
It is anticipated that his new role will take up a considerable amount of his time, making it very unlikely that he will be able to represent the Zalmi in any meaningful way.
In recent years, Wahab Riaz has become one of the most well-known figures in the world of cricket, representing Pakistan at multiple international events over the years.

As one of the mainstays of the Pakistani team over the last few years, the Lahore-born cricketer, who captained Peshawar Zalmi in the last edition, has been an integral part of the team’s success, playing a crucial role in the success of his team.
Known for his left-arm pace, the left-arm pacer has been one of the most valuable members of the Peshawar Zalmi squad, and his absence could have an adverse effect on their chances in the marquee event.
As the tournament is set to start on February 13 and the left-arm pacer will have a decision to make on his participation in the tournament, fans will be eagerly anticipating the left-arm pacer’s decision.
As of now, Wahab Riaz is the leading wicket-taker in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) with 103 wickets in 77 matches at an average of 21.29 and a best bowling figure of 4 for 17 out of a possible 100 wickets.
