PSL 11 - Multan Sultans Demand Answers from PSL Over Delay

The old agreement of all franchises is valid till 31 December and PSL management has not suspended the Multan Sultans agreement. Sources say the new agreement was not sent due to non compliance and because owner Ali Tareen made statements against the PSL administration and tore the legal notice from PCB.

He said PSL says issues will be settled in the boardroom, but no communication has come. He said if PSL does not send the letter, reply to emails, or invite them to meetings, then legal action is the only option. He said PSL leaked the letter again but still did not reply to their legal response.
He said valuation has increased more than 200 percent and that if PSL had kept him satisfied, he would have signed a deal of 15 billion. He said all franchises are unhappy with the PSL management. He said PSL did not try to manage the situation after his criticism and wanted to remove him.
He said he contacted PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi but the CEO did not respond. He said PSL numbers show declining revenue, gate receipts, and sponsor income and questioned how teams can sign a 10 year agreement in a declining league. He said some teams may enter re bidding to buy cheaper teams.
He said PCB mentions increasing numbers but hides the declining figures. He said digital viewership may increase but TV viewership is going down which is the major revenue source.
Ali Tareen said he may use his PSL experience in football to show how a sustainable league should be run. He requested Mohsin Naqvi to meet franchise owners to address sustainability concerns. For Multan Sultans fans, he said they are the heart and heartbeat of the team and he will resist any action taken against them and will go into re bidding.
