In light of this, Shane Watson and the management have made a decisive move in appointing new leadership for the team. Rilee Rossouw, a prominent batter, has been entrusted with the role of captaincy. Alongside him, Saud Shakeel, a talented player, has been named vice-captain. This decision is anticipated to infuse the team with fresh energy and perspective as they embark on their PSL campaign.
The combination of Rossouw’s seasoned experience and Shakeel’s vibrant energy is expected to form a formidable duo for Quetta Gladiators. As the PSL season nine kicks off on February 17, 2024, with Lahore Qalandars facing Islamabad United in Lahore, all eyes will be on the revamped Quetta Gladiators team and their new leadership to see how they fare in the tournament.
