All PSL matches scheduled in Lahore now shifted to Karachi!
On Sunday 3rd March, PCB chairman Ehsan Mani announced that all matches that were scheduled to be played in Lahore are now shifted to Karachi. According to the original PSL schedule, 3 out of the 8 matches in Pakistan were to be played in Lahore. Matches in Lahore were to be played on 9,10 and 12 March.
Why were the matches shifted?
Due to India-Pakistan war situation, the commercial flights were blocked in Lahore airspace. This caused delay in the opening of Lahore airport and caused extreme inconvenience to the organizers. The major challenges were securing the production equipment and commitment of the broadcast crew and making arrangements for the players and officials.
The PCB chairman said that it was a difficult decision to make but they had considered alternatives like shifting the Lahore matches to Karachi and the matches scheduled in Karachi to Lahore but that created even further inconvenience. He also said that they had made efforts to change the dates and push the schedule a bit further but that was not possible since the Pakistan Cricket Team has to leave for UAE on March 19 for their series against Australia.
The chairman further said that the PCB has talked to the franchises which have shown great support for the decision and all foreign players will play the matches in Pakistan.
PCB will refund all tickets for the Lahore Match!
