The Pakistan Super League (PSL) has been postponed as announced by the Pakistan Cricket Board on Friday. This decision came just hours after the initial plan to relocate the tournament to the UAE, amid ongoing military conflicts with India.
Simultaneously, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) suspended the Indian Premier League (IPL). The heightened tensions follow India's 'Operation Sindoor', which was launched in response to the Pahalgam terror attack. Prime Minister Mian Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif's counsel led to the PSL's cancellation, focusing attention on Pakistan's military efforts.
Although the Emirates Cricket Board has a good rapport with BCCI, it appears unlikely to approve the PSL's relocation request. The Pakistan Cricket Board acknowledged the collective efforts of all partners and franchises in organizing the event. However, they stated that cricket must pause in the face of such international hostility. The recent conflict stems from an attack on civilians in Pahalgam, affecting Indo-Pak relations.
