LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced the successful completion of the independent valuation process for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) franchises and related commercial assets. This comprehensive exercise marks a significant step in strengthening the financial and structural framework of the league. Following the conclusion of the valuation, renewal offer letters—featuring the revised franchise fees for the next ten-year cycle—have been formally issued to all compliant PSL franchises. The PCB has requested each franchise to review the details and submit their decision within the stipulated timeframe.
To uphold the highest standards of transparency and to ensure that all stakeholders have complete clarity on the valuation process, the PCB has organised both collective and one-on-one meetings between franchise representatives and the independent valuer, EY MENA. These sessions are designed to give franchises an opportunity to thoroughly examine the valuation methodology, understand the underlying assumptions, and address any concerns or queries directly with the experts involved.
In addition, the PCB has received valuation reports for two new PSL franchise teams, marking an important phase in the league’s ongoing expansion. The formal tender process for the sale of these new teams will be launched shortly. Interested parties will have the option to select from the following city names: Hyderabad, Sialkot, Muzaffarabad, Faisalabad, Gilgit, Rawalpindi. This expansion is expected to further enhance the league’s footprint, broaden fan engagement across the country, and create new commercial opportunities.
The PCB remains firmly committed to fostering a fair, transparent, and mutually beneficial partnership with all PSL stakeholders. As the PSL continues to evolve, it remains a cornerstone of Pakistan cricket—driving domestic talent development, elevating international visibility, and contributing significantly to the sport’s commercial growth in the country.
