1. Payment was never an issue @thePSLt20 and no Overseas player has ever complained.
2. Hosting PSL in 🇵🇰 over the last couple of years have proved that it’s safe and @TheRealPCB is hosting it successfully

In his three-point tweet, Sikandar further stated that the successful hosting of the PSL in Pakistan over a couple of years has proved that Pakistan is a safe country.
“Hosting PSL in [Pakistan] over the last couple of years have proved that it’s safe and [The PCB] is hosting it successfully,” he concluded.
