However, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has not reacted to the proposal. It will be interesting to see whether China hosts the PSL 2027 player auction next year.
Under the new rules, every Pakistan Super League franchise can directly sign one marquee player who did not feature in PSL 10 or PSL 11. However, the final venue for the PSL 2027 that is scheduled for January 23 has not yet been decided despite China's proposal.
Franchise officials will discuss important matters, including the player retention deadline, the pre-auction trade window, auction rules and playing conditions in the workshop. Amid this, Watch: Abhishek Sharma turns Babar Azam, drops a dolly in 1st T20I vs New Zealand.

The official media release states, “In a significant step towards strengthening Pakistan's cricketing pipeline, the PCB has formally aligned its domestic competition calendar with the HBL PSL pre-season cycle. The National T20 Gold and National T20 Silver tournaments will serve as the primary talent-identification and player-pathway events ahead of the HBL PSL 12 Player Auction – offering outstanding domestic performers a clear and direct route from national circuit cricket into the country's premier T20 franchise league and onwards to national team consideration.”
