If Pakistan holds elections next year, one fascinating option they would debate is shifting the PSL to the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
However, fitting the PSL games into the hectic schedules of other T20 leagues is a significant difficulty.
Team owners want to finalize the schedule as soon as possible so everyone can prepare. However, there is a snag: the UAE is also planning ILT20 from January 19th to February 18th.
This may make it difficult to locate somewhere to play PSL games.
PSL may also collide with IPL. The president of Pakistan, Dr. Arif Alvi proposed November as the month for holding the general elections. However, the elections will take place during the PSL days. Also, this may affect PSL negatively as most of the international players will go for their expensive IPL contracts.
The meeting is especially significant since it is the first time Zaka Ashraf, the management committee’s leader, would meet with the team owners. He will offer fresh perspectives and leadership to the PSL. They will likely opt not to add additional clubs to the PSL for now.

Zaka Ashraf and the team owners appear to agree on this. They intend to maintain things the same till the eleventh edition of the PSL. The PSL will be led by a new man, Sohaib Sheikh. But there’s a question regarding Naila Bhatti, who is currently the Commissioner.
We have no idea what will happen to that job. This meeting on September 25th represents a watershed event for the PSL.
The decisions they make will have an impact on the league’s future. Cricket fans all across the world are eager to see what they decide.
The PSL’s large online gathering is a watershed moment. It is where they will decide what happens next in this intriguing T20 tournament. Cricket fans around the world are eager to watch what happens next.
