Yea , Nobody can compete with IPL. Just find the sept - October window for PSL. .

Banning player's from PSL will be suicidal for PSL .. kis kisko ban karoge?

:kp
 
You can't really do anything. You can ban them for a year, but at the end of the day they will take that because the money they make in one IPL season is probably far more than they will make in even two seasons of PSL. That's something you will have to deal with when running head-to-head with the IPL, because no rational cricketer can be expected to say no to an IPL deal over a PSL deal.
 
Let’s not speak BS now. This is free market. If you’re going to head to head against IPL, this was always going to happen. Fining or banning players isn’t going to solve our issue.

We must find another window to host PSL plain and simple. No other league faces this issue because no other league did it to themselves. This is a self created problem and as usual we walked ourselves into a trap.
 
Lol the action makes no sense.

Someone getting 5 carores here, can make 20 carores in Ipl. So if u ban him for 3 seasons, he would not have issue, as he has already made the money to bare the ban.

Plus, there are many other leagues to make up for the lost money. A player we ban, would only be effective if that player also doesnt get an ipl contract.
 
Anyone who leaves PSL after signing a contract is being blatantly disrepectful. He deserves to be banned from PSL permanently.

I would be surprised if Muzarabani gets more than 2 games in IPL. I think he made a blunder by going to IPL. :inti
 
Wherever players get the most money they will go there.... It could be IPL PSL BBL BPL CPL or others...... because IPL has the most money players naturally will prefer to go there as the quality of cricket will be a bit higher aswell. Not a lot can be done franchises should never pick these players again or just accept money is everything in sports.
 
I'm sure there's some legal recourse you can try but it won't amount to much.

This was always going to happen when you decided to go H2H with the IPL.

That October/November window is actually pretty good for PSL

Just play Test series at home when IPL is going on and leave October/November free for PSL
 
Why don't the IPL and PSL franchises sign some sort of trade or partnership agreement ie an IPL franchise requests a psl franchise to release a player because of injury, loss of form and an IPL franchise agrees to release a foreign player sitting on the bench or they are not interested in giving playing time too, that player can get much needed game time in Pakistan?

If both leagues are going on at the same time and the PSL has accepted its place as a junior subsidiary league to the IPL then why not get some sort of co operation trade player exchange agreement in place? I am sure smart people involved can structure this very well in a win win formula

Once someone signs a contract, he should honor it.

Money shouldn't override principle.

Let's be honest, if you signed a contract for $100,000, the penalty for breaking the contract is $100,000 at most and in a few days another employer makes you an offer of $800,000-$1,000,000. What will you honestly do?

Similar thing would happen if it was another league elsewhere money is key here If roles were switched players would leave IPL to join PSL.
 
If Pakistan is being realistic they should just ignore and move ahead with whatever players they can secure and try to install PSL as domestic giant. Clashing with IPL shouldn't be happening. Seperate window with good quality players would serve PSL well. Soon many Players will be becoming T20 mercenaries around the world. Take them in, build a good foundation for quality cricket and everything will follow. Patience is key which I find lacking amongst Pakistan administrators

This is actually a good idea and probably should be implemented across leagues, although I’m not sure of the precise shape and form.

Unfortunately I don’t see the IPL signing it with PSL- too much of a power imbalance, probably too much arrogance.

Use July-August Window from the next season.

July August is unbearably hot humid to play in Pakistan. I visited Pakistan from Canada during these months and struggled in the heat, humidity and was forced to drink a lot of fluids, sodas when outside and forced to take 3-4 showers daily. Can't imagine how tough it will be for players to play cricket in this weather at that time unless the PCB holds the games really late at night ie from 8 pm onwards and expands the league to the coolest areas of Pakistan ie Quetta, Muzaffarabad, Gilgit Baltistan, Abbottabad etc but that will ruin the home and away concept. Plus the PSL will be clashing with the vitality blast, cpl, hundred at that time.
 
Pretty crap to go back on your word but they will make more from the IPL in one season than probably 4 seasons in the PSL so you can understand why these players would do that.

Simply put it is more lucrative to play in the IPL than PSL and there is no shame in admitting that

If PSL starts to ban players or threaten them, IPL is going to just offer them more and more to make it worthwhile for them to still come to IPL.

It's not like IPL lacks money
 
PCB should experiment with a September to November window for the PSL and regig their FTP. In any case even in the IPL window, the ECB has refused NOC's for their centrally contracted players and we aren't able to attract the current Australian super stars.

PCB also needs to take the PSL overseas and tap into the Pakistani Diaspora in Canada, USA, England, Australia, New Zealand e.t.c. You don't have to hold the entire PSL outside Pakistan but why not experiment with a few exhibition games, holding the playoffs and finals outside Pakistan?

I've read Shanaka was getting 75 lakh in PSL and replaces Sam Curran who gets 2.4 crore...... Assuming he gets the same being a replacement still a lot more plus league is higher in quality in terms of overseas players.
 
Just take it on the chin and move on. Maybe this scenario feels unusual in cricket but we see things like this all the time in football. Supporting a Scottish football team and watching a player about to sign only for a random English club step in and offer more money. There is no limitation on players available worldwide so just bring in an alternative and give them an opportunity instead.
 
Maintain good relations with Taliban govt in Afghanistan for any international or PSL game with crowd in Pakistan

With too many leagues everywhere and international duties, if someone gets released for any other reason except medical should have clause that couldn't sign in ANY league for 90 days... this is called "no compete clause".
It's kinda like WWE vs WCW at this point right now and all they are doing is poaching talents.
 
PCB 'will take action' against players opting out of PSL for IPL: Mohsin Naqvi​


PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi has promised to take legal action against players who have left the PSL for the IPL at the last minute, with the two leagues clashing for the second year in a row.

Sri Lanka's Dasun Shanaka has become the second player to do so, opting out of Lahore Qalandars' roster to replace the injured Sam Curran for Rajasthan Royals at the IPL.

Australia allrounder Daniel Sams will replace Shanaka at Qalandars. Blessing Muzarabani had already pulled out of the PSL after securing an IPL deal with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

"We will take action against those players according to the rules," Naqvi said on Sunday. There was a case last year too [Corbin Bosch, who was banned from the PSL for one year], and the same thing will happen this time.

"Bosch was a diamond pick for Peshawar Zalmi last time but he made a late switch to play for Mumbai Indians in the IPL.

"Clashing with the IPL is not an issue because if players are going there, we're getting excellent players coming here as well. We could not afford to postpone the PSL because we have no other window all year.

"There have also been other withdrawals this PSL, with Gudakesh Motie, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Ottneil Baartman and Spencer Johnson among those pulling out, though most of them have cited personal reasons.

The PSL is set to start on March 26, two days before the IPL kicks off across the border. The PSL will be played behind closed doors, however, Naqvi announced on Sunday, because of an oil crisis amid the West Asia conflict. The venues have also been trimmed from the original six to just two: Lahore and Karachi.

Legal action. What a joker this Naqvi is. Do that and no foreign player will join the league.

What incentive does IPL has in signing such an agreement?
 
From a player's perspective, it'll always be what's good for them over what's good for a league. A league offers them more money, they'll ditch IPL in a heartbeat as well. Loyalty is reserved only for their country, not for any league.​

This window is not feasible as for next 3 years
All ICC events are in Oct Nov

I say go revert back to Feb march window
Which is more ideal

Problem with Feb March window is that all the top IPL foreign players will give psl a miss. They will not risk their two months million dollar contracts and risk injury, fatigue, loss of form by playing the PSL, they will want to rest and recover

Ipl isn’t one team, its a entire system with multiple teams across leagues so players get picked in other leagues and get paid, something psL owners can’t offer

He gets to become part of ipl ecosystem and likely contract in another ipl team owned franchise in another league

Most IPL players don't have million dollar contracts and not having the best foreign players doesn't make a big impact.
To improve Pakistan need to find a few higher strike rate players which is possible then Pakistan can catch up to the best teams and compete well in tournaments.

yes. NZ crowd is relatively muted crowd compared to South African crowd. Let us see how they organize. You have to sell the product. You have to create a fan base. RCB/CSK didn't happen overnight. Fan engagement is an important component for success of a league.SA20 is slowly getting there. Can't say about other cricket leagues. NZ20 will have their task cut out in creating a robust fan support for top teams in their league.

NZ Cricket doesn't have enough sponsors. I remember that they had to depend on Pakistani sponsors when hosting Pakistan at home. New Zealand Cricketers don't get paid well by NZCB, this is why the vast majority of NZ players have opted out of Central Contracts and have gone the T-20 freelance route to make more money. Mathew Sinclair who had played international and domestic cricket after 20 years, in retirement had to apply to the government for food stamps, a doll out. A lot of NZ cricketers have to go back to school, college to enter into new professional careers after retirement i.e. real estate, book keeping and accounting (Adam Parore). Very few earn consistent lucrative commentary contracts or IPL coaching salaries.

Absolutely. Fan engagement is a must. Will be a great boost to fan following.

Read CSK had a season introductory event at their home ground. A sell out crowd with past and present players. Now that's fan engagement.

CSK is a team that seem to already have a huge and passionate fan following. Even with such a following, the team did not rest. They have a huge event to get the fans pumping for the new season.

Others should take a page out of this.
 
Let's be honest, fan engagement overall is very hard when your national team is not doing well and when overall Pakistan Cricket lacks heros, match winning super stars. The present Pakistani players i.e. Shaheen, Babar are all social media propped, they have zero cricketing achievements to speak about. Stats alone are meaningless when you keep consistently failing in your career defining matches.
