Multan Sultans’ owner Ali Tareen has expressed his desire to see player mics getting introduced in the upcoming season of the Pakistan Super League.
Tareen was reacting to a post on X, previously Twitter, about a Big Bash League match where Aussie batter, Glenn Maxwell, was talking to the commentators through a mic while standing on the field.
I really wish we had player mics in PSL. Such great content. https://t.co/X6N0lY1IzE

Maxwell won the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup in India recently. He played a heroic innings of 201* against Afghanistan which helped the Aussies qualify for the semi-finals.
Maxwell made a hilarious comment while fielding at extra cover. He said ‘Would have got that two years ago’ when he couldn’t reach the ball and stop the single. In his mind, his fitness levels dropped once he entered his 30s.
Ifti on the mic would be 🔥 https://t.co/7Nnzxa4GXr

Ali Tareen also shared that Pakistani batter, Iftikhar ‘Iftimania’ Ahmed, would be a menace with the mic. Tareen said this while replying to a person who thought that the local players wouldn’t be comfortable wearing mics and having a conversation in-match.
A lot of work goes into a draft. Pre-analysis, lots of data then giving that data context/relevance. Draft simulation, team simulations and more!
We wanted to capture the process to show the fans. The team did a superb job! Watch now! 👇#SultanSupremacyhttps://t.co/txVR2EWNOk— Ali Khan Tareen (@aliktareen) December 25, 2023
Tareen shared a ‘behind the scenes’ video of how the Sultans picked the squad for the upcoming season of the PSL. He has built a diverse backroom staff, which includes locals, foreigners, and the most recent addition of a woman representation.
