Will the PSL's commercial viability in the UAE be affected by other leagues? (APL, UAE T20x, T10)

[MenInG]

Crazy amounts of league cricket coming up in the UAE but is there a danger that by the time PSL starts in Feb 2019, there will be advertiser and fan 'fatigue' for Pakistan's premier T20 tournament?

Sorry if i missed the news, but aren't more matches in PSL to be held in Pakistan this time?

yes but my point is about too much league cricket as well.

Will people switch off?

PSL's viewership would suffer if and only if the public sees it as substitutable with the other mushrooming leagues. I don't suppose that is the case yet. As long as PSL's brand managers can successfully position it as a unique product, they'll be OK.

PSL should , MUST be held in England.

Will cricket will take a big hit soon? With all new leagues opening every year.

Yup.

There is real danger of attracting new fans to the game. It will not remain pure.

Unclassy people will enjoy cricket all over the world.

I don't think so.

The PSL is now an established brand. The UAE T20X and APL are competing with each other.

Now if IPL or BPL were being held in the UAE, I would have been worried.

No doubt, every league has an impact on another
Doesn’t matter how much owners deny it

 

[Shandarchowka]

No, because people know which tournament has the best quality. PSL is in a different league compared to some of the other tournaments mentioned in the first post. I'm sure many aren't even aware such tournaments are held anyway.

Yup.

What are unclassy people and are You in the position to call other people unclassy?
