How do drafts usually take place?​

Drafts can be tricky for people who are watching them for the first time. They can even be tricky for the team management. Hence, they hire people specially so that they can guide them about the draft rules each year.
But you won’t have to hire anybody, we are here with you! Here’s a short guide about how these drafts usually take place each year. Consider these basics.

• Firstly, each team announces their retentions from the previous years. These players will not be a part of the draft. However, teams have to drop some players that are made available for the picks in the upcoming draft.
• Then, PCB announces the players list and their categories. They also announce pick orders before the drafts. Teams plan their picks for the drafts accordingly.
• For each category, there can be multiple rounds. As per the pick order, the teams choose their players.
• TWIST: Teams also have limited options to revoke any team’s pick if that player was in their franchise last year. This happens when that franchise had dropped that player, but was planning to re-pick them. However, this can cost them their turn for the round.
• Teams can also trade their pick orders if they trade players with each other before the drafts.
