LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Tuesday confirmed that the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 10 Player Draft has been rescheduled and will now take place on 13 January here at Huzoori Bagh, Lahore Fort.
The event has been moved from the earlier announced venue, Gwadar, due to unforeseen logistical challenges. The PSL 10 Trophy Tour scheduled in March will now feature Gwadar as a key location on its route across Pakistan.
The landmark season 10 of the PSL is slotted to take place between 8 April and 19 May later this year. The six franchises will assemble their star-studded squads on Monday, 13 January during the Player Draft ceremony at one of Lahore’s most iconic heritage sites.
