Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Director National High-Performance Centre (NHPC) Nadeem Khan revealed that crowd will not be allowed during Pakistan Super League (PSL) edition six, Geo reported today. 

“According to plan, there will be no involvement of the public in this year’s PSL, however, we are monitoring the situation as the time is progressing,” Nadeem said.

The decision has been taken considering the Covid-19 pandemic and the recent surge in new cases. However, the former cricketer ensured there will be exceptions given the circumstances improve.
