Pakistan Super League
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.
