That makes her the first player from her nation, to be part of the England-based league. All-rounder Sana, who is currently leading PAK in the Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 has been a game-changer for her team, and has come up with some substantial performances in the past.

She is expected to earn a minimum salary of £15,000 (5.6 million PKR approx.). But then, her availability could be bit of a concern, with the Sri Lanka series scheduled for July 23 – August 4.
Meanwhile, two male Pakistani cricketers are already part of The Hundred — with spinner Usman Tariq being picked by Birmingham Phoenix, and Abrar Ahmed going to Sunrisers Leeds. The Hundred will be played from July 21 to August 16 this year.
