“Afridi is a crowd-puller and we’d like to have such players playing,” Nadwi said. “We are talking to Inzamam and Shahid. It is difficult to get Indian players as they have a defined policy where they only play in the Indian Premier League. It will only be the main players from the sub-continent, but we are (also) expecting players from the UK, West Indies, and South Africa.”
