Shahid Afridi Hits Out At PCB For PSL 2021’s Delay

Former Pakistan captain, Shahid Afridi, has hit out at the PCB for postponing PSL 2021 due to spread of the COVID-19 in the tournament’s so-called ‘bio-secure bubble’.

The former skipper recently attended a gathering in Lahore where he made remarks about the Pakistan Super League and the ineptness of the cricket board to keep the tournament afloat.

It appears they didn’t have a plan B when the COVID-19 cases were detected among some players and officials and this is surprising to me. The postponement didn’t send out a good message

He further suggested the management should’ve opted for isolating “individuals who tested positive and continued with the tournament”.

Meanwhile, principle owner of the Quetta Gladiators franchise, Nadeem Omar, holds similar stance. He believes that “the PCB is 90 percent responsible for the tournament which eventually led to the postponement of the PSL”.
