The HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) 10 is gearing up for a much-anticipated return, with the tournament expected to resume between May 16 and 18. Final touches are being put on the schedule, as fans eagerly await the conclusion of this thrilling edition.
PSL 10: Back in Action
According to inside sources, discussions are ongoing between the PSL administration and relevant stakeholders to ensure smooth operations and successful delivery of the remaining matches. The tournament was paused with just eight matches left, after cross-border tensions between India and Pakistan caused a sudden halt during its final stage.
Now that a ceasefire has been announced, both PSL 10 and IPL 2025 are likely to resume shortly, restoring energy to the cricket calendar.
Foreign Players and Team Preparation
Many overseas players who had traveled to Dubai after the postponement have returned to their home countries. However, efforts are being made to bring them back for the remaining fixtures. If matches resume on May 16, all teams are expected to assemble in Islamabad by May 14.
