PCB working on Plan B for the Punjab leg of PSL season 8

A huge bill from the provincial government pushed PCB to consider moving the Punjab leg of PSL 8 to Karachi. Meanwhile, on Friday in a unanimous decision by the PCB and PSL franchisees, it was decided that payment of additional 450 million rupees to the Punjab government will be avoided.

The matches will officially be moved to Karachi if the bill is not waived. The updated timetable has also been negotiated with the franchisees in the interim.

Syed Mohsin Raza Naqvi, the interim chief minister of Punjab, declared that the provincial cabinet is opposed to the bill’s exemption. However, fans react to the security arrangements of PSL.
