Not just the planning for the playoff matches, there have been fresh discussions regarding the involvement of Peshawar and Quetta as new potential venues in the Pakistan Super League. Barely two weeks ago, Peshawar Zalmi owner Javed Afridi demanded to involve Peshawar as a new venue in the league.
Reports from Pakistan claim that discussion was also held on how the scheduling for PSL 2025 will be done. Earlier, the PSL team owners decided not to host the league at the same time frame of that of IPL 2025.
The PCB has also offered the teams to secure marquee players in the league for multiple years. Plans have been made that can see each side sign a player directly along with the marquee.
