Ahead of the remaining Pakistan Super League (PSL) 6 matches to be played in Abu Dhabi, the UAE government has issued visas to all players and support staff travelling from India and South Africa.

Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) Director Communications Sami Burni has informed that the Indian and South Africans have received visas to travel to Abu Dhabi ahead of PSL 6.

David Miller, Faf du Plessis, Herschelle Gibbs, Rilee Rossouw, Cameron Delport and Michael Smith have all received their travel documents.

He said all members of the support staff from South Africa were also issued travel visas by the UAE authorities.

On Tuesday, the PCB had to suspend its scheduled chartered flights to UAE due to the delay in the issuance of visas.

Two aircraft were earlier scheduled to leave from Lahore and Karachi on Wednesday to take 233 passengers to Abu Dhabi for the PSL. However, a late-night message by the board on Tuesday stated that the flight has now been delayed by 24 hours.

“Departure to UAE from Pakistan delayed by a day due to non-issuance of visas of all passengers,” a PCB official had said.

“We can’t do much, it is what it is,” the official added.

Another source had said that PCB was banking on the assurance of the Emirates Cricket Board. The UAE board had informed PCB after 10 pm about the delay in the issuance of visas.

How Much Pakistan Suffers From PSL 6 Postponement?

by
PSL Postponed

After the sixth edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL 6) postponed on Thursday, a heated argument took place between the PSL franchise owners and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) during a virtual meeting.

PSL 6 has been postponed for an indefinite time period after 6 players tested positive for coronavirus.

The PSL franchise owners asked PCB how the novel coronavirus entered the bio-secure bubble?

According to sources, two teams before the beginning of the tournament were shifted to a hotel, and after some time, they were again transferred to another hotel.

During the meeting, the PSL franchise owners expressed anger at PCB for not protecting the bio-secure bubble and allowing other events to take place at the hotel. The PCB, however, accepted its shortcomings at this.

PSL franchise owners spend millions of rupees to buy different national and international players for the tournament. On the other hand, the owners spend money like water for the promotion of their teams. They release the franchise’s official anthems every year, hire different celebrities as brand ambassadors, spend money on the cricket kit, and many more.

The postponing of PSL 6 has financially damaged the PSL franchise owners, which gave them the right to be angry at PCB.

Two players who tested positive for the virus are from Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has on Thursday announced to put off the sixth edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL) after a rising number of Coronavirus cases among the players.

In this regard, PCB Chief Executive (CEO) Wasim Khan, addressed a press conference and stated that today is a sad day for all the PSL fans and the management.

While briefing the presser at the National Stadium, Wasim Khan said, “It’s a very challenging day for us [PCB], cricket lovers, stakeholders, players and officials involved.”

He further added, “Health and safety of the players are above everything so we came to the conclusion that it is best to postpone the event.”

“Biosecure bubble is all about trust and discipline. Building trust will take some time but we make sure this doesn’t happen again. Postponing PSL is a difficult moment for PCB and fans too but we PCB are resilient to make PSL6 possible again,” Khan went on to add. 

He also maintained that the rising number of COVID-19 cases was a collective fault and it is not the time to blame anyone.

“We have done everything, we possibly could but with any bio-secure bubble, it takes partnerships, discipline, and self-policing. These are the factors for us to remember,” added the PCB CEO.

However, the cricket board, as an immediate step, will focus on the safe and secure passage of all participants and arrange repeat PCR tests, vaccines, and isolation facilities to the six participating sides.
