New Zealand all-rounder Corey Anderson has become the latest foreign player to join the platinum roster of Pakistan Super League for the 2019 edition.

Anderson, 27, has been inducted in the platinum category of the PSL draft, which is scheduled to take place on November 20th.

He has played 13 Tests, 49 ODIs and 31 T20Is for New Zealand.

Anderson broke Shahid Afridi's record for the fastest ODI century when he cracked the milestone off just 36 balls, on New Year's Day in 2014 against West Indies.

AB de Villiers broke Anderson's record a year later, reaching the ton off 31 balls against West Indies.

AB de Villiers and Australia’s Steve Smith are some of the other high-profile players headlining the PSL roster. Windies trio of Dwayne Bravo, Kieron Pollard and Sunil Narine are also part of the platinum players list.

Australian star Chris Lynn, who was ruled out of last year’s tournament for Lahore Qalandars due to an injury, has also signed for the upcoming season of PSL.
