Peter Siddle

Cricket stars Peter Siddle and Samit Patel will miss this summer's T20 Blast. Both players are banned by ECB rules. They participated in an unsanctioned tournament in Goa earlier this year. This means Siddle cannot play for Nottinghamshire. Patel's absence ends his T20 Blast streak. Ravi Bopara also won't play this season.

The comment came after Multan Sultans beat Quetta Gladiators on Sunday to register their third win of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season. The team is set to return to the same venue on Monday for their next game against Rawalpindi Kings.

PSL 2026 kicks off March 26 with Lahore Qalandars facing Hyderabad Kingsmen, but without spectators due to regional issues and rising costs. The tournament will be broadcast-first, held in Lahore and Karachi. Despite the challenges, eight teams and international stars promise exciting cricket, with the opening match at 7:30 PM IST.

The 11th edition of the PSL will bring together domestic and international players, with preparations underway as per schedule.
