According to reports, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 6 draft is set to be held in Karachi in the second week of December.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is looking to host the draft in an outdoor event at the National Stadium, Karachi due to the sudden rise in the COVID-19 cases in the country. Alternatively, the draft may be conducted online.

The fifth edition of the PSL concluded last week with Karachi Kings winning their first PSL title by defeating Lahore Qalandars in the final. The tournament was originally scheduled to end in March but it had an extended delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The PCB has already shifted its focus to next year’s PSL with the draft for the PSL 6 set to be held within the next couple of weeks.
