In a significant development for the Quetta Gladiators, former Pakistan cricket captain Sarfaraz Ahmed has been named the new Team Director of the franchise. The announcement, made earlier today, marks a new chapter for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) team as they gear up for the upcoming season.
Sarfaraz, widely respected for his leadership skills and cricketing acumen, brings a wealth of experience to the role. The 37-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman famously led Pakistan to the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy title and has been a key figure in domestic and international cricket for over a decade.

While Sarfaraz steps into the Team Director position, it remains unclear whether he will continue to play an active role on the field. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how his strategic insights will shape the Gladiators’ performance in PSL 2025.
