Ubaid Shah targets Babar Azam, Haris Rauf aims for hat-trick of PSL titles

Shah brothers, including Naseem, Hunain, and Ubaid, are part of Islamabad United for the ninth edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL).

Ubaid is thrilled about bowling with Naseem, his favorite bowler, gaining insights on T20 conditions. He aims to excel for United, particularly aspiring to dismiss Babar in the tournament.

"I enjoyed bowling with Naseem today where he told me about bowling in T20 as per the conditions. It has benefited me and I will try to perform well for United as much as possible," Ubaid told reporters on Wednesday.

"The batting quality in PSL is great and I will strive to dismiss top batters, including Babar Azam," he added.

All three brothers aspire to represent the country together, with Ubaid ready for any opportunity in any format. 

Meanwhile, Lahore Qalandars' pacer Haris Rauf is confident in their bid for a third consecutive PSL title. 

Qalandars are the defending champions, having won the title in 2022 and 2023.

"Fans would want us to win again and we will try to execute good performance again," Haris said.

"There is no such pressure of being defending champions. There is no pressure on me either. I will try to improve my performance and secure a place in the team," he added.
