The Lahore Qalandars dressing room for PSL 11 mixed senior internationals with emerging names, and Mohammad Naeem was one of the players who ended the season in fifth place on 0 points. It was a rare early exit for the three-time champions.
Mohammad Naeem — the full profile
Every PSL champion's story includes a squad player who became a starter by May. The tournament is too long, and the calendar too crowded, for eleven names to carry a franchise through it.
Coaches who have worked with players from Pakistan's domestic circuit, where the National T20 and first-class grind still shape most PSL careers tend to say the same thing — versatility is the calling card: roles shift, standards do not.
How Shaheen Shah Afridi builds an innings decides where this player lands in the order of things: pace is held back for the death wherever possible.

The Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore factor is real in this league: local knowledge of bounce, dew and boundary sizes is worth runs before a ball is bowled, and Lahore Qalandars lean on it at home.
Mohammad Naeem and PSL 12
A title defence, a rebuild, a point to prove — every franchise carries a label into PSL 12. For Lahore Qalandars, the label matters less than the first fortnight, when Quetta Gladiators-calibre opposition usually exposes weak combinations. Form in the National T20 pathway events also matters now, with the PCB using them as a talent-identification route into the auction.
