Proteas stars George Linde and Janneman Malan will play in the Pakistan Super League later this year.

Linde and Malan have been drafted by the Multan Sultans and Islamabad United, respectively.

The sixth edition of the PSL started earlier this year, but was postponed after 14 matches amid an increase of coronavirus cases in Pakistan. The tournament is scheduled to resume in June 2021.

Batsman Malan has gathered four ODIs and nine T20Is since debuting in international cricket in 2019.

Spinning all-rounder Linde has collected three Tests and seven T20Is since 2019’s debut.

Malan will be joined by Australian batsman Usman Khawaja at Islamabad.

Multan have also recruited West Indies seamer Obed McCoy.

Fast bowler Dale Steyn and all-rounder David Wiese will not rejoin the Lahore Qalandars and Quetta Gladiators, respectively.
