It was a good Bismillah.
The capital has passed the bill, now it's up to the provinces to capture the opportunity and prove their worth.
Yeah, Punjab being the bigger province should hold the final in Lahore.

The five franchises of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) on Monday met at the National Cricket Academy in Lahore to pick players in the replacement draft.
The replacement draft was held so that teams can replace players who will not be able to participate in the second edition of the event due to a ban, NOC, injury and/or availability issues.
The curious case of PSL’s profit
The players under question and their replacements
From Lahore Qalandars: West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Bravo (injured) replaced with England opener Jason Roy (available till February 20), Australia pacer Shaun Tait (injured) replaced with New South Wales off-break bowler Chris Green and New Zealand all-rounder Anton Devcich (injured) replaced with New Zealand veteran James Franklin.

- They should aim for 1 home match for each team in local Pakistani City in Group stages and Final
Hopefully that should encourgae the players to change their opinion etc down the line
If all team plays 1 game from group stage , it will convey to all the other international players that Pakistan is Safe for Cricket

England all-rounder Moeen Ali has opted out of participating in the second edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) as he will instead join his family members on a pilgrimage to Makkah, Saudi Arabia.
On Monday, Moeen was named as a replacement for West Indies’ Carlos Brathwaite in the Quetta Gladiators squad.
However, the Quetta-based team was quickly informed of his change of plans, and Moeen has now been replaced by Australia’s Brad Hodge, who represented Peshawar Zalmi in the tournament’s inaugural season.

The all-rounder has been a regular member of the England squad across all three formats in the past year.

Really we need to focus on local Players , and better HD quality camera and Full Stadiums with local Audience
UAE empty stadium is just not good for cricket in my personal opinion
I would watch a good quality organized local Tournament , with ALL FIRST LEVEL Pakistani players
Then few bratty players who can't travel to Pakistan
If Kids age 5-6 Can walk to school in Pakistan daily , I am sure over paid foreign players can do just fine with a protected bus to staidum
Seem like kindergarten and pre highschool kids are more brave
After the first season the only thing we missed in first season was
a) HD quality camera
b) Super Slow motion camera
c) Some quality replays and production work (International quality analysis during play)
d) Of course , local crowd
Playing on variation of playing surface , available in Pakistan is better for over all player development , we just lack 1-2 Fast tracks , but otherwise , we got every thing locally
Don't need to play in UAE hate that Desert Dusty ground

I think since Pakistani National Team players are spread in all teams , each game presents a unique experience.
Last season did not had a specific team but it was chance to see alot of new faces
The battle between Captains Afridi vs Misbah I think was captivating too bad Younis Khan was not leading any team , otherwise it would have offered good chance to see just who is a better captain

Did you even watch PSL last year? the camera's were HD and production quality was top notch. Sunset+VIne produced PSL during the first season and they are highly respected in the field. I don't know if they were able to broadcast in HD in Pakistan on TV due to the lack of HD channels but in Canada I streamed it at 1080p and it was great.

Well I think it has to be better , I did watched it . However I also did watched Big Bash , and the difference in camera quality clarity etc and quality is hug.
Sorry but I am used to watching EPL or La liga , in rediculous amount of resolution , so I think such items can certainly be improved a bit level or 2
I will say this
a) The presentation was excellent (The pre game / in game discussion and commentators) etc but I think there are even more sharper HD production out there.
b) Sharp jersies were great , the songs and atmosphere was great, this was really a nice factor as during the whole event , the songs really stood out
c) I did missed the event not taking place inside Pakistan, I personally am not big fan of event taking place in UAE , as certain segments of population can only come on certain days or in evenings
d) The draft could have been done better like NBA, the opening ceremony was very catchy
e) KP was wonderful with mike when he did decided to try things in the booth vs playing in field. And of course the Austrlian commentator who tried his hand with the Theme song
Since it was first season it was remarkably done

- However, the PIA pilot strike just before the event also did not helped with event , I think there were more visitors due to visit the games but due to pilot / PIA strike & all flights were cancelled during that period
- Would make sense for PIA to may be advertise some discounted tickets to UAE so folks can attend some games in alignment with tournament dates
