ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Super League 2018 is predicted to bring back the international players to Pakistani stadiums which are deprived of the international players since years.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief operating officer Subhan Ahmed said Pakistan will host eight matches of PSL 2018, with Karachi and Lahore both set to host four matches each of the third edition of the league.
Hailing the PSL final in Lahore a success, the PCB COO informed the committee that the final, held on March 5 at the Gaddafi Stadium, attracted a larger TV audience than even Pakistan-India matches.
“TV ratings for Pakistan-India matches usually go up to 10, but the PSL final saw ratings of 21,” he told the committee.
In his briefing to the committee, PCB chairman Shahryar Khan said former batsman Nasir Jamshed was the one responsible for inciting some players to spot-fixing during the PSL.
