Lahore, September 22 - The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has revealed plans for a new T20 league, named the Pakistan Super League (PSL), stating that top cricketers like Kevin Pietersen, Shakib Al Hasan and Dwayne Bravo are likely to feature in the competition. It will be a five-team affair starting in February, reported by a website on Monday.
PSL has already shot a promotional video with Pietersen and launched a tournament logo. Stars such as Grant Elliott, Tim Bresnan, Kieron Pollard and Darren Sammy confirmed their participation in the league.
However, there were no commitments made on franchise names, broadcasters and the player draft. Veteran batsman Younis Khan, who led Pakistan to the World T20 title in 2009, was absent from the event.
