LAHORE: The Pakistan Super League (PSL) Governing Council is set to hold an important meeting on Friday to discuss several key issues related to the upcoming season 11, sources revealed.
The meeting, which will be conducted virtually, was initially scheduled for Thursday but was later postponed by a day.
It will mark the first Governing Council session since the inclusion of two new franchises, expanding the league from six to eight teams.
According to sources, the agenda will focus on finalising major operational and commercial matters ahead of PSL 11.
Discussions are expected to include player retentions, the players’ draft, auction-related issues and the overall tournament schedule.
Notably, PSL Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Salman Naseer has recently revealed that the possibility of conducting a players’ auction will be discussed with the franchises.
Sources further revealed that proposals to increase players’ remuneration and introduce direct signings could also be taken up during the meeting, with the possibility of key decisions being finalised.
The Governing Council is also likely to deliberate on various options for the draft date, while members may be asked to give their views on holding the players’ draft before the bidding process for the Multan Sultans franchise.
