The Pakistan Super league is an initiative taken by the Cricket Board with the objective of improving the image of the country, revival of International Cricket and providing an opportunity to Pakistani cricket fans to witness fast-paced cricket live in Pakistan. The logo was launched in early 2013. The PCB later decided that more time was required by all stakeholders to organize the event in a befitting manner. Hence the event was postponed. The PSL management is currently working on finding space in international calendar in the near future to organize the PSL.
