It’s worth noting that, the PCB on 7 January announced to reschedule the PSL 10 Player Draft, which will now take place on 13 January 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.
