Sources stated that the franchises emphasized finalizing the PSL schedule and drafting dates as soon as possible. PSL management and franchises collectively agreed to bring in prominent international players.
The PSL 2025 franchises also requested financial support from the PCB to acquire major foreign players. The emphasis was on players who did not get contracts from the IPL.
