Pakistan Super League, What’s at stake?
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is the domestic franchise cricket tournament that is organized in Pakistan. It is administered by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), and its format is very similar to the Indian Premier League or IPL. This cricket league is very popular in Pakistan, and in its inaugural season, the tournament was held in the United Aram Emirates (UAE).
In the last few years, PSL has gained a lot of TRP, and the number of viewers has doubled. This has allowed more companies and sponsors to increase their spendings on the cricket teams.
