Amid rising India-Pakistan tensions, PCB moves PSL matches to UAE for player safety. Updates about revised schedules coming soon.

PCB Shifts PSL Matches to UAE Amid Tensions

To ensure safety amid India-Pakistan tensions, PCB relocates PSL matches to UAE. Details on new schedule to be announced.

PSL relocates to UAE amid rising heat

PCB relocates PSL matches to UAE amid India-Pakistan tensions, ensuring players' safety. Accompanying schedule updates will follow.

The PCB on Friday decided to shift the remaining matches of its Pakistan Super League to the UAE because of the ongoing military confrontation with India which has left the event's foreign players anxious.
The PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) said early this morning that the last eight fixtures, which were previously scheduled in Rawalpindi, Multan and Lahore, will now be staged in the UAE.
Schedule of matches, outlining the dates and venues, will be shared in due course, a statement said.
PCB Chairman, Mohsin Naqvi alleged that India had targeted the Rawalpindi cricket stadium in the most recent strike inside Pakistan to disrupt the PSL.
However, the Indian defence ministry has made it clear that only the air defence radars and systems were targeted on Thursday after Pakistan tried to hit 15 places in northern and western regions in India on Wednesday night.
"...in view of the extremely irresponsible and dangerous Indian act of targeting the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, which was manifestly done to disrupt the ongoing Pakistan Super League X, the PCB has decided to shift the remaining matches to UAE," Naqvi claimed.
The PCB chief said the shift to UAE was done so that domestic as well as foreign cricketers' concerns are suitably addressed.
"As a responsible organisation that has overcome adversities repeatedly and ensured that the game of cricket flourishes, it was important for us to ensure the mental well-being of all players participating in the PSL," he said.
Earlier on Thursday the PCB called off a scheduled match between Peshawar Zalmi and Karachi Kings at the Rawalpindi stadium.
Reports in the British media stated that the English players competing in the league were considering leaving it due to security concerns.

Karachi Kings' thrilling victory over Multan Sultans saw James Vince's rapid century and an unusual hair dryer award, sparking debate.

James Vince's Century 

James Vince's rapid century led Karachi Kings to victory over Multan Sultans in PSL 2025, overshadowed by a hair dryer award controversy. Vince's feat ranks third-fastest in PSL history, stirring social media reactions amid Karachi's cricket celebrations.

PSL saw James Vince's rapid century and an unusual hair dryer award, sparking debate

James Vince's stellar century led Karachi Kings to a thrilling PSL win over Multan Sultans, sparking debate with a quirky hair dryer award.

In a curious turn of events during the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025, a post-match award ceremony became the talk of the town after the Karachi Kings secured a thrilling victory over Multan Sultans at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi.
England's James Vince, whose incredible century was pivotal in the win, was unexpectedly awarded a hair dryer, sparking a wave of criticism across social media platforms.
Multan Sultans had initially set a formidable total of 234/3, powered by a stellar, unbeaten 105 off just 63 balls by Mohammad Rizwan. Karachi Kings, however, responded with resilience, thanks to a crucial 142-run partnership for the fifth wicket between James Vince and Khusdil Shah.
Vince not only crafted a scintillating century but also laid the foundation for his team's successful chase, which was sealed with four balls to spare. He eventually fell on the last ball of the 18th over, while Khusdil remained not out with a blazing 60 off 37 balls.
Following the home side's four-wicket triumph, Vince was deservingly named Player of the Match. He was then asked to visit the dressing room where a sponsor presented him with a hair dryer, an unconventional choice that left both Vince and fans somewhat bewildered.

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The unusual reward quickly became fodder for social media, where fans criticized the PSL franchise for awarding such a quirky prize for a batting display of such caliber.
In terms of record achievements, Vince's rapid century, completed in just 42 balls, ranks as the third-fastest in PSL history. The record for the fastest stands with Usman Khan, who scored a century in an astonishing 36 balls, with Rilee Rossouw of South Africa clocking in a 41-ball hundred.
Riding high after their triumph, Karachi Kings are set to face Lahore Qalandars next on Tuesday at the National Stadium, aiming to maintain their winning momentum in the league.

PCB plans a critical meeting post-PSL to resolve internal cricket team issues, addressing communication gaps and decision-making. Coaching appointments to be reviewed as Bangladesh series approaches.

PCB Meeting Aims to Resolve Cricket Issues

Pakistan Cricket Board plans a crucial meeting post-PSL to address internal team communication issues. Decisions on the coaching staff expected soon as Pakistan hosts Bangladesh.

PCB plans meeting to resolve internal Cricket team issues post-PSL

PCB to host stakeholder meeting post-PSL to resolve internal cricket team issues. Dissatisfaction over communication and decision-making. Coaching staff appointments imminent as Pakistan hosts Bangladesh soon.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is planning to have a conference with players, coaches, national selectors and mentors during or after the Pakistan Super League (PSL) to "resolve some internal issues" in the national team.
A source said on Thursday that PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi was not happy with the way matters related to the team had been handled so far by all the stakeholders.
"There has been a lack of proper communication between the team captains, coaches and selectors in recent months and this has led to senior players including ODI and Test captains, Mohammad Rizwan, Shan Masood not being happy at decisions being taken by over-riding their views in selection and other team matters," the source said.
He said Rizwan had conveyed a message to the chairman to meet with the players and discuss the issues.
Apparently Rizwan was overruled by the interim head coach, Aaqib Javed, and selectors on a few occasions in selection and team strategy matters in recent times.
"The PCB chairman will probably call a meeting with senior players, selectors, coaches, concerned board officials and the mentors to openly discuss the issues in the team," the source added.
A similar exercise was held last September by the PCB in which some senior players openly questioned the performance of some board officials and expressed their concerns over NOC policy for foreign leagues.
The PCB also has to take a call on the coaching staff for the national team during or after the PSL ends next month before Pakistan begins its new international home season with a series against Bangladesh at home.
The PCB has to decide whether to make Aaqib the permanent head coach in all formats or appoint new coaches.

The PSL encounters a scheduling clash with IPL as players like Corbin Bosch choose IPL, prompting PCB's legal actions. This is PSL's first scheduling conflict since 2016.

PSL vs IPL: Players Face Tough Choices

In a first, PSL overlaps with IPL causing players to choose, like Corbin Bosch opting for IPL. PCB responds with legal notice, marking a significant development since PSL's 2016 commencement.

Mumbai Indians star exits PSL, faces lawsuit

PSL faces scheduling conflict with IPL, causing player choices. Corbin Bosch joins IPL, leading to PCB legal action. This marks PSL's first clash since its 2016 start.

In an unprecedented clash of schedules between cricket's two major franchise leagues, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) faces a significant challenge as it goes head-to-head with the Indian Premier League (IPL) this season.
This overlap has understandably resulted in players having to choose between the two competitions, with IPL being the preferred option due to lucrative pay and increased visibility.
A notable instance of this clash saw South African cricketer Corbin Bosch opting to leave his PSL commitments for the IPL.
Bosch was originally contracted with Peshawar Zalmi, having been selected in the Diamond category of the PSL's tenth edition player draft in Lahore on January 13. However, he was recently recruited by the prestigious IPL franchise Mumbai Indians as a replacement for the injured Lizaad Williams.
In response, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has issued a legal notice to Bosch, accusing him of breaching his contract.
The notice was delivered through Bosch's agent, demanding an explanation for his sudden withdrawal. The PCB outlined the consequences of this contractual violation and requested Bosch's reply within a specified timeframe.
This marks the first occurrence of a scheduling conflict between the PSL and IPL since the PSL's inception in 2016.
The PCB was compelled to shift the PSL window from February-March to April-May due to the Champions Trophy and other international engagements within Pakistan.
While some international players who were not picked in the IPL auction subsequently signed with the PSL, situations like Bosch's are causing consternation within the Pakistan cricket community. As the PSL navigates these challenges, the competition remains a crucial platform for both emerging and established cricket talent worldwide.

The incident unfolded in the crucial 19th over of Peshawar Zalmi's batting effort, a point in the game where Islamabad's bowlers were firmly in control. Arif Yaqoob unleashed a powerful shot towards deep square leg, challenging the fielders. It was here that the ball boy, having previously failed to hold onto a catch, showcased his resilience by making a remarkable catch, much to the delight of spectators.
Stationed at deep square leg with the ball boy positioned just behind him, Munro had witnessed the boy's earlier unsuccessful attempt at a catch when Amir Jamal of Peshawar Zalmi lofted a six over his head.
