400 people have been killed in the air-strike carried out by Pakistan in Afghanistan, due to which the Pakistan Super League is in danger. Even if PSL starts, questions are being raised on the safety of the players. Australia Cricket Board has already asked its players to be cautious. Let us tell you that famous Australian players like Steve Smith, David Warner, Marnus Labuschagne and Glenn Maxwell are going to play in the next season of Pakistan Super League.
PSL 11 is going to start from 26th March. Australian coaches Tim Paine and Jason Gillespie are also part of this league. Despite the bad situation between Afghanistan and Pakistan, the Australian Cricket Board has given permission to its players and coaches to go to Pakistan, and has also advised them to avoid traveling to Peshawar.
According to Australian media channel ‘Code Sports’, Australian players can go to Pakistan to play PSL, but they have been advised to maintain distance from Peshawar. PSL matches are to be played in Peshawar, but the Australian Cricket Board has declared Peshawar a ‘no travel zone’.
Due to this, the match between Peshawar Zalmi and Rawalpindi Pindies to be held on March 28 is in danger. Australian players are present in both the teams. Considering the advisory issued by the Australian Cricket Board, Jake Fraser McGurk and Aaron Hardy may miss this match.
In the same report, Australian players have also been assured that if needed, private flights will be arranged for them. Let us tell you that even before the Pakistan Super League, all the Afghan players have withdrawn their names. Many players including Mujeeb Ur Rehman, Sediqullah Atal and Mohammad Nabi had registered for the auction, but they withdrew their names before the auction.
