The six franchises completed their squads for the ninth edition of Pakistan Super League during the PSL 2024 Players Draft, which took place 13 December at National Cricket Academy, Lahore.

Lahore Qalandars, Multan Sultans, Quetta Gladiators, Peshawar Zalmi, Islamabad United and Karachi Kings had retained a few players heading into the PSL 2024 draft, where they filled the remaining slots.

Each franchise was allotted a maximum of eight retentions. Barring Multan Sultans - who retained seven players - all franchises made full use of their retentions. The usual suspects Shaheen Shah Afridi, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf were among the names retained.

Colin Munro, Rashid Khan, Alex Hales, Rilee Rossouw, Rovman Powell, Tabraiz Shamsi, Sikandar Raza, Jason Roy and David Wiese were among the overseas players retained by the franchises, who also retained a few emerging talents.

During the retention day, the franchises were forced to release a few players, whom they could bring back to the side by using the Right To Match (RTM) card. All the six sides had one RTM Card that allowed them to pick any player released from their roster.

The likes of Kieron Pollard, Kyle Mayers, Mujeeb Rahman, Dasun Shanaka, Bhanuka Rajapaksa and David Willey were available in the top category of the draft with PSL Season 9 set to be held next year in the February-March window.

Every Pakistan Super League squad must have a total strength of a minimum of 16 players to a maximum 18 players, including a minimum of four capped Pakistan players and four overseas players.

England's left-arm pacer David Willey became the first pick of the draft for Multan Sultans, while West Indies duo Kieron Pollard and Sherfane Rutherford were the next two to be drafted. Here is a look at how the PSL 2024 squads look after the PSL draft:
