The Pakistan Super League have announced that they will open mid-season trade window later this week, as reported by ESPNCricinfo.

Before the beginning of the tournament, it was agreed amongst the franchises that players who had yet to feature for their respective teams after four matches were eligible for transfer.

Though the date has not been confirmed, logic would suggest that the window will open on after the Karachi Kings play Islamabad United on Saturday, which would mean all six teams had played at least four games.

According to the regulations of the trade window, teams are only allowed to exchange players who were drafted in the same category and on the say pay scale on which they were originally purchased.

Each team will have the chance to trade two unused players which will allow them to restructure their team for the rest of the tournament.

This could mean that Multan Sultans could trade young Afghan spinner Qais Ahmed if he does not feature in their next game with Peshawar Zalmi's Dawid Malan if he also does not feature as both were drafted in the gold category.
