PSL 4

Update: Due to a sustained back injury, AB de Villiers will not be able to rejoin with his squad in Pakistan.

AB was to return to play 2 matches for Lahore Qalendars, but doctors have advised him to rest.


It’s disappointing news for Lahore Qalandars management and its fans that AB de Villiers will not be able to make it for Pakistan’s leg of PSL but we wish him a speedy recovery. He is a wonderful player and an amazing person – Sameen Rana, the manager of Lahore Qalandars said in a statement.

De Villiers also shared his two cents:

I am very disappointed that I will not be able to play in front of the passionate Pakistani cricket fans. I saw my doctor who has advised complete rest for two weeks and, unfortunately, that rules me out of the games in Karachi.

I hope to be a part of the HBL PSL next year and very much hope to play my part in the return of international cricket to the country. I am backing Lahore Qalandars to go all the way and win the trophy this year.
