PSL matches moved to Karachi amid rising tensions with India

Due to rising tensions between Pakistan and India, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to shift all remaining matches of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Season 10 to Karachi.

According to reports, the major decision was made during an emergency meeting held at Gaddafi Stadium on Wednesday. Franchise owners and officials from law enforcement agencies attended the meeting. The main goal was to ensure the safety of players, staff, and fans as the tournament enters its final and most important phase.

With security concerns increasing, the PCB discussed the matter with all stakeholders and agreed that moving the rest of the matches to Karachi was the best option.

Today’s scheduled 27th match between Karachi Kings and Peshawar Zalmi, which was supposed to take place at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, has been cancelled. It will now be played in Karachi on a new date, which will be announced soon.

This decision also comes as the PCB prepares for Pakistan’s upcoming home T20I series against Bangladesh. The board wants to make sure that the international matches are not affected by the current situation.

Although moving the matches at this stage brings some challenges, the PCB believes it is the right step to keep the league running smoothly and to avoid any risks.

New match dates and timings for the remaining PSL games in Karachi will be shared by the PCB shortly.
