Hyderabad joined the Pakistan Super League after Fawad Sarwar’s Kingsmen Group acquired the franchise rights with a successful bid valued at Rs1.75 billion, approximately $6.25 million.
On the field, the newly added franchise has begun shaping its squad by retaining Saim Ayub, Usman Khan, Maaz Sadaqat, and Akif Javed as part of its early team framework.
The team further strengthened its lineup through the direct signing of Australian batter Marnus Labuschagne, adding international experience ahead of the upcoming Pakistan Super League season.
Hyderabad Houston Kingsmen have also appointed an experienced coaching staff, naming former Australian fast bowler Jason Gillespie as head coach for their inaugural campaign.
Grant Bradburn will serve as fielding coach under Gillespie’s leadership, completing the team’s initial backroom structure as preparations continue for the tournament.
The landmark eleventh season of the Pakistan Super League will begin on March 26, while the highly anticipated player auction is scheduled for February 11.
