Earlier, the UAE government had asked the PCB to get all the stakeholders involved in the PSL vaccinated. This was a massive task as people from all around the world are involved in PSL and the vaccination campaigns are at different stages of roll-outs.
The board and the franchises decided to wait till Thursday before taking a final call on the fate of the tournament. The marquee event was postponed in March after several cases of COVID-19 in the bio bubble.
