Australian cricketer David Warner has become the latest marquee player to register for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Season 10 draft.
The PSL announced the news on its official X account, sharing, "ENDING 2024 ON A HIGH. The Aussie powerhouse David Warner has registered for the #HBLPSLDraft!"
The upcoming PSL Season 10 will be held in Gwadar, Balochistan, with the draft scheduled for January 11. The tournament will run from April 8 to May 19, promising high-octane cricket with global stars like Warner and New Zealand pacer Tim Southee signing up.
Warner's decision to enter the PSL draft follows an unexpected turn in his career. The veteran opener, who participated in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 mega auction, surprisingly went unsold.
The announcement of his PSL participation comes shortly after Warner’s retirement from international cricket. He bowed out following Australia’s Super Eight exit at the T20 World Cup, where he scored 178 runs in seven matches, including two fifties. His final T20I game against India marked the conclusion of a glittering international career characterized by audacious stroke play and relentless aggression.
In Test cricket, Warner amassed 8,786 runs in 112 matches at an average of 44.59, with 26 centuries and a career-best score of 335. In ODIs, he tallied 6,932 runs in 161 games at an average of 45.30, boasting 22 centuries. Warner’s T20I career saw him score 3,277 runs in 110 matches at a blistering strike rate of 142.47, making him Australia’s highest run-scorer in the format.
He also played pivotal roles in Australia’s triumphs, including two ICC ODI World Cups, a T20 World Cup, and a World Test Championship.
