LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board on Thursday announced that the inaugural Women’s League, a T20 event, will be held in March next year and will run alongside the eighth season of the Pakistan Super League.
Four city-based sides, each comprising 12 local and six foreign players, will compete in a double-league format with matches to be held at the Pindi Cricket Stadium. The final of the tournament will be held a day before the final of the PSL, which is scheduled for March 19.
“Some of the matches will precede the PSL matches,” PCB chairman Ramiz Raja was quoted as saying in a statement on Thursday.
“This league will attract young women cricketers to this great sport and help our current players further enhance their skills when they will get to share dug-outs with the overseas players.
“This event is aligned to our strategy of making Pakistan a stronger cricket playing nation across all formats and genders.”
