PSL 10: Proposal for Schedule sent to PSL franchise by PCB
According to the proposed venues by the Pakistan Cricket Board, Lahore and Rawalpindi are expected to host more matches than Karachi in PSL 10 next year.
Lahore is probably going to host a total of 10 matches while Rawalpindi will host eight. Karachi City will only get to host 5 matches the same as Multan.
The reason for giving Karachi such a low number of matches is the lack of crowd and turnout.
In the last edition this year, Karachi hosted 11 matches including the Qualifier, the two Eliminators, and the final of the event.
