A decision on the resumption of the Pakistan Super League (PSL X) is expected within the next 48 hours, sources confirmed on Sunday.
The remaining eight matches of PSL X will be played in Lahore and Rawalpindi, sources have said. Despite economic challenges, PSL X will be completed at all costs.
Sources also revealed that if some franchises are unable to field foreign players, the league will proceed with local players. Ongoing discussions with foreign players are expected to continue, according to sources.
Earlier on Saturday, it was reported that the PSL management was reportedly considering reviving the excitement of cricket through the resumption of the tenth edition of the domestic marquee tournament, following Pakistan’s recent victory over India.
Sources divulged that the PSL management had contacted franchise owners, and Chief Executive Officer Salman Naseer has instructed all franchises to remain prepared. All foreign players have been asked to stay at their current locations until further notice.
“The arrangements are being made — I will provide complete details shortly. PSL will go ahead,” Salman Naseer told sources.
The PSL was postponed yesterday and all foreign players and staff were affected. The players had previously departed for Dubai aboard Pakistan Armed Forces’ aircraft.
