LAHORE – A dozen of national cricketers will take part in the Kashmir Super League in the last week of this month, said the KSL chairman on Monday.
The fist season of the League will be played from April 28 to May 2 in Muzaffarabad. “At least twelve Pakistani international cricketers are agreed to play in the league so far,” Masood Khan said at a press conference in the Azad Jammu and Kashmir’s capital.
“Mohammad Irfan, Aamer Yamin, Rahat Ali, Zulfiqar Babar, Agha Salman have agreed to play in the league while talks are in progress to convince other players,” he said.
Six teams are taking part in this tournament; Muzaffarabad Qalandars, Kotli Lines, Mirpur Tigers, Rawalakot Warriors, Bagh-e-Badshah and MK Kings.
To a question, Khan said since the tournament is being played in an independent state, so there is no need to get permission from PCB.
On the other hand, a PCB spokesperson said the national cricketers will not be allowed to play in Kashmir Super League without a No Objection Certificate (NOC). The official said the board had not received a NOC request for the Kashmir Super League.
