The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is gearing up to restart the Pakistan Super League (PSL), despite the uncertainty surrounding the return of foreign players. The plan involves executing the final matches before Bangladesh's scheduled T20 series later this month.

According to a credible source from the PCB, following diplomatic advancements with India, the board is strategizing to resume the PSL around May 16, concluding the remaining eight matches, including the final, whether foreign recruits are present or not.

While some international players remain in Dubai, others have returned to their home countries. Franchises have been advised to request their return, but the final call rests with the players and their respective boards. The PCB is also coordinating with the Bangladesh Cricket Board, ensuring close monitoring of the situation. As conditions stabilize, the series is set to proceed, with matches planned in Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, and Lahore.
