KARACHI: In a blow to the Lahore Qalandars, all-rounder Liam Dawson was ruled out of Pakistan Super League 2023 due to an ankle injury during Sunday's game against Karachi Kings at the National Bank Cricket Arena.
The Qalandars management, in a tweet on Monday, confirmed Dawson's unavailability for the remainder of the season. The team will look for a replacement for the middle-order batter.
Dawson bagged a wicket and scored only a run while representing Qalandars against Kings as LQ suffered a defeat by 67 runs.
Dawson joins the undesirable list of players ruled out of PSL 8 due to injuries. The list includes pacer Multan Sultans' Shahnawaz Dahani and Wayne Parnell and Karachi Kings' Mir Hamza.
Moreover, KK's Muhammad Amir has also been ruled out for the next game against MS on February 2022, the KK management confirmed Monday.
Dahani had been ruled out of the tournament after suffering a finger injury in the very first game of the league. Mir Hamza also suffered a finger injury in KK's inaugural game against Peshawar Zalmi.
Dahani was replaced by pacer Muhammad Ilyas and Mir Hamza was replaced by fast bowler Akif Javed.
Carlos Braithwaite replaced Wayne Parnell in the MS squad.
