PCB to wait one more day for future of PSL 6
ABU DHABI: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to wait till tomorrow to get National Crisis & Emergency Management Authority (NCEMA)’s approval to start installing the production set-up.Â
A higher official in the PCB has said that NCEMA will most likely make a decision on this matter by tomorrow.
Remember, PCB had requested Abu Dhabi authorities to allow Indian crew to start installing production set-up at Sheikh Zayed Stadium from June 5 in order to let Pakistan Super League (PSL) 6 resume from June 7.
Moreover, a request was made to relax COVID-19 restrictions for Indian crew which was sent back to Dubai to complete quarantine. PCB requested Abu Dhabi’s health ministry to allow the Indian crew to complete quarantine here.
It must be noted here Pakistan will now travel to England on June 25 instead of June 23. PSL 6 final is expected on June 24 if the league resumes on June 7.
