Najam Sethi in his presser:
“I think you will appreciate that over the years, PSL is the biggest T20 brand in the private sector after the IPL.”
"If I recall right, I don't think such a star-studded event has happened in the past; There may have been one or two but this time, the PSL, will really be a star-studded event."
"All other leagues which are happening now have been planned to happen before PSL because they knew that if they came in competition with us, they would not be able to compete with us in prestige and value, so that is a sign that our PSL is really flying."
"This flag has been kept flying by previous administrations and Inshallah we will keep it going."
"Having a PSL game and an exhibition match in Quetta are two different things - there are differences in requirements and conditions, one is an international game and the other a domestic level match, so when I spoke to General Asif Ghafoor about this and international preparations, both in terms of the situation there on the ground and also in terms of the facilities, it was decided that to hold PSL games this year in Quetta will be premature, and to have an exhibition game and get PTV to broadcast it"
"I am astounded by this and also want to ask what infrastructure development has taken place in the past 4 years which has resulted in better upkeep of our stadiums"?
"Allah knows best how long one is here for, but I promise you we will spend whatever is needed to upgrade these stadiums to international levels."
"We have 4 venues at the moment, but we need 2 more venues; We are told that in Quetta the Bugti stadium has been renovated a bit but there is still a lot of work to be done there; If we can prepare this venue by next year and the situation on the ground improves then why not (have PSL games there)?"
