PSL: Points Table, Match Resume Date & Final Match Date Changed- Know All Details Here
The tournament will be played in Abu Dhabi, despite speculation in recent days that it was going to to be moved to Sharjah
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) will resume here on June 9, three months after it was suspended due to COVID-19 cases in its bio-secure bubble in Karachi. Fourth-placed Lahore Qalandars will meet third-placed Islamabad United in what will be the 15th match of the tournament, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said.
In order to finish the tournament before Paksitan’s tour of England, there will be six double-headers — five of them preliminary round and the sixth one on June 21 when the Qualifier and Eliminator 1 matches will be played.
The seven-day isolation period for players and staff who arrived in the UAE via chartered flights from Pakistan ended on June 2 but a delay in the arrival of the production crew forced the PCB to rejig the schedule. The tournament was earlier meant to start not later than June 5 and they had considered Sharjah as an alternative where the quarantine rules are not as strict as in Abu Dhabi.

Only 15 matches of the tournament were possible earlier in the year, before a spate of positive COVID-19 cases inside the bio-bubble led to the tournament, which was scheduled to be played entirely in Pakistan for the first time,getting postponed on March 4. After skipping past all the logistical challenges, the tournament was finally shifted to UAE.
