England Cricket Team Tour to Pakistan and PSL's role

Pakistan Government has deployed more than 4000 personnel for security measures of Pak Vs Eng Serious 

The England Cricket Team has arrived in Pakistan after 17 long years for the T20 series and three subsequent Test matches, while for the Pakistani team it may be over a decade away, but several England players have played PSL in recent years. This historic tour will not only test the strength of England's bench but also is useful as a preparation for the T20 World Cup.

 A comprehensive and robust security plan related to this T-20 series between Pakistan and England at Karachi National Stadium has been prepared by the Security Department. According to the security plan, more than 4000 employees were s deployed for security measures, 2000 personnel of Security Division including 1000 Special Security Unit (SSU) Commandos and lady commandos, 1537 personnel of Traffic Police, 356 personnel of Special Branch, 300 personnel of Rapid Response Force (RRF) and personnel of Pak Army and Sindh Rangers are performing security duties along-with personnel from other law enforcement agencies at National Stadium Karachi, practice grounds, Karachi Airport, routes, hotels, and other different areas, while sharpshooters have also been deployed at sensitive points.

A Special Weapons and Tactics (S.W.A.T) team comprising highly trained and well-equipped Commandos including lady Commandos will remain alert at SSU Headquarters and patrol in the surroundings of the stadium as a quick response force to challenge any emergency.

SSU’s specialized command & control bus has also been stationed at National Stadium to monitor the law & order situation in the surroundings of the stadium. While aerial surveillance will also be made during the movement of the teams.

The PSL is a popular product in its own right, widely regarded as the second-best short-form league in the world behind the IPL, but has also acted as a diplomatic vehicle to bring driving players - from Britain and somewhere else - back to Pakistan. As a result, the board could no longer hide behind claims that players did not want to travel. “Individuals needed to come to Pakistan to break down barriers and PSL helped them do that” (Mickey Arthur)

The number of British players involved has increased each year, with 23 playing at least once in the 2022 edition. Jos Butler said the extent of England's involvement in the PSL "reduced some concerns" about the security situation. "They shared positive experiences here.

Imran Ahmad Khan, who chaired the PSL's recruitment process until now, said, "In many ways, the PSL has become a vehicle for the full return of international cricket to Pakistan to the slowly changing perceptions”.

An exceptionally enormous number of worldwide partners are engaged with the PSL biological system, including players, mentors, support staff, creation groups, and pundits. All of them were able to experience Pakistan through PSL and share their experiences with people from their respective countries.

"PSL was a stepping stone for me,” Malan said. Countless people have benefited from the platform that the tournament has provided.
