It is yet to be seen whether the Pakistani players will take part in the tournament as they are yet to get NOC from their board.

But it is a huge scalp for the Unicorns, who have landed two of Pakistan’s top players. Pacer Haris Rauf has been a revelation and has 83 T20I wickets for his country in 62 matches.

“Rapid Rauf is heading to the Unicorns. This Pakistani speedster is locked and loaded ahead of #MLC2023 Welcome @HarisRauf14,” the franchise tweeted.

Talented all-rounder Shadab Khan is also going to be part of San Franciso Unicorns for the inaugural season. Shadab has shone for Pakistan across all formats, but is most prolific in the shortest version of the game.

“Whether it’s taking wickets or smashing sixes, this all-rounder from Pakistan is sure to deliver. Welcome @76Shadabkhan,” Unicorns welcome the 24-year-old.

Apart from the Pakistani duo, there are some top international names in the squad. Aaron Finch is going to lead them in the inaugural season, whereas Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis, South African pacer Lungi Ngidi will also don their shirts.

The Unicorns play their first match of the season on July 15 (Indian date) against MI New York. Former Australia player Shane Watson was appointed as head coach as they look to shine in the MLC 2023.
