The six domestic franchises have announced their squads for the Quaid-e-Azam trophy 2020-21. From Multan and Rawalpindi, the domestic cricket is now moving to Karachi by 25th October as the red-ball tournament is to begin. The three venues that have been chosen by the administration are National Stadium, UBL Complex, and NBP Sports Complex.
The 35-member squads of each domestic side do not include those top-class players who are part of the Zimbabwe series. Other than that, all top-performers are going to participate in the mega-event.
