The Hundred 2025 player draft, held on March 12, saw no Pakistan players selected despite 45 registering. Naseem Shah, the highest-priced Pakistan player at £120,000, along with others like Imad Wasim and Saim Ayub, remained unpicked. The omission was unexpected, especially as overseas slots are still available.

Afghanistan’s Noor Ahmad and New Zealand’s Michael Bracewell were the top overseas signings, both securing £200,000 contracts. Meanwhile, veteran England pacer James Anderson, though set to play in the T20 Blast, was also overlooked.
David Warner and Rachin Ravindra were notable signings, with Warner joining London Spirit for £120,000 and Ravindra heading to Manchester Originals.
