Understand that free roaming might not be an option , but having visited Pakistan a few times why can’t arrangements be made for Bahria Town or Safari Villas etc?

They’re secure, spacious with plenty of room to stretch and even roam around, lots of facilities - modern as hotels too...there can be backdrop security presence as well.
 
Did you bothered to get little information where Players been these days before starting a Thread?

Not a single day they missed outdoor activities fyi.

Malan in the press conference said that the ‘cabin fever’ from having to stay in hotels so long, isn’t great. I’m sure it isn’t unbearable but the housing complexes presented a good place with a lot more space to walk and feel at home...

Because its not really safe for them to roam around just yet. It will take another 10 years for that to happen.

After watching foreign players having a good time in Pakistan, wondering what the poster who started this thread is thinking, is he disappointed ?

Wasim Khan mentioned in an interview earlier that they do have activities planned throughout the tournament.
 
obviously they are not freely roaming around but they have arranged activities.I think PP should post pictures of Karachi Kings visit to nathiagali beach, chris lynn playing golf, MCC players visited Lahore historical places.

What kind of strange question is that? Foreign players always stay in hotels regardless of which country they are playing in and whether they are playing a T20 league or international cricket. They are guests in your country, why would you want them to stay in a housing society?
 
Plz stick to the topic, stop India vs Pakistan stuff Thanks
 
Tbh I have a question to people like Malan

What are the activities he is missing out on in Pakistan due to him being in a hotel all the time?
 
Speaking to the press after his 64 for Islamabad

"They (Pakistan fans) have been starved of top-level cricket for the past 10 years or so; to have this tournament which has been so fantastic over the past 4 years , played here fully - I feel the fans deserve it; Its great for the overseas players to commit to play the whole tournament and to put on a show for these guys"

"The boys (English players) are excited; The PSL is one of the strongest tournaments in the world and to have it here in front of passionate Pakistan fans is unbelievable; As the tournament goes on, we might get a bit of cabin fever by sitting in hotels all the time but as the security improves over the years, I am sure things will get more relaxed and we can a few more things"

For anyone who wants to know the source.

Also, stick to the topic - Thanks.
 
I think we should be patient with cricket coming back.. things will normalise slowly and inshallah cricket will be fully back... baby steps
 
You do realize that this thread makes no sense right.
Golf, restaurants, moin khan academy, malls , etc
 
I still don’t understand what a professional player can do in India to keep entertained as compared to Pakistan
