Lahore: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has shared three possible schedules with franchises for the resumption of Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 6.
According to the sources, June 7, 8, and 9 are under consideration to resume the event. Final will be played on June 24 as PCB is in contact with England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to delay the Pakistan team’s traveling.
The cricket board has requested Abu Dhabi’s health ministry to allow the Indian crew to start installing production set-up at Sheikh Zayed Stadium from June 5. The ministry will make a decision on this matter tomorrow.
If PCB gets permission, the event can commence from June 7, otherwise, a further delay is expected. More double-headers will take place in all three possibilities.
Meanwhile, the teams have been given a green signal to start training from Wednesday. Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars will be allowed to start training tomorrow.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Tuesday announced June 7 as the tentative date for the remaining matches of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) to kick off if Indian broadcasters are allowed to end their isolation period by June 5.
The decision on the start date was taken after the PCB board and the franchise owners met virtually to discuss the progress of the remaining PSL matches. The PCB said that during the meeting the franchises were briefed about the 16 production company crew, who are now isolating in Dubai after being allowed entry in Abu Dhabi last week.
