PSL moves out of Pakistan, remaining matches were to be played in UAE

PSL schedule: The remainder of the matches from the Pakistan Super League (PSL) are likely to be hosted in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The campaign was announced suspended in March this year after various cases of COVID-19 were being detected within the bio-bubble.

PSL start date June 1?

All matches were scheduled to be held in Karachi at the National Stadium. But all six of the PSL franchises have requested the PCB delegation to shift the event to the UAE, keeping in mind the rising cases in Pakistan. The PSL is now to resume on June 1 and should be completed by June 20. According to sources, the PCB officials are now just waiting for the confirmation from the Emirates Cricket Board.
