      <title>Hyderabad sign Saim Ayub for record Rs126m ahead of PSL 2026</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Debutant Hyderabad unveiled their high-profile squad for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2026, announcing the signings of Saim Ayub, Usman Khan, Maaz Sadaqat and Akif Javed.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The franchise made the announcement through a social media post featuring animated visuals of the four players, welcoming them to the team ahead of the upcoming season.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Saim Ayub emerged as the biggest signing, becoming the most expensive player in PSL history after Hyderabad secured him for a record Rs126 million.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The dynamic all-rounder was previously part of Peshawar Zalmi but was released due to limited retention slots.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hyderabad also signed wicketkeeper-batter Usman Khan for Rs46.2 million following his release by Multan Sultans, while Maaz Sadaqat and Akif Javed were acquired for Rs35 million and Rs19.6 million, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Earlier, the franchise had also announced the signing of Australian star Marnus Labuschagne for the 2026 season, who is expected to play a key role in strengthening Hyderabad’s batting line-up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With these high-profile acquisitions, Hyderabad have signalled their intent ahead of the PSL 2026 auction, where the franchise is expected to pursue additional marquee players while managing its budget.&lt;/p&gt;
