I thought this is a national football league when I read the title hehe.

Any brief background from the participating teams like the usual favorites or top teams? I have no idea. What crypto sportsbook that offered line for this in the past? I checked on Rollbit's cricket section but I only saw the Indian Premier League. I don't know if PSL lines will only open on Feb. 13.

Pakistan Super League (PSL) is going to start on 13th February which is great news for us and to enjoy the game.  I thank @OP, for creating a topic to discuss Pakistani sports.  Like every year in 2023 everyone is invited to enjoy the game.
Multan Sultans VS Lahore Qualandars will open the first (PSL) match between these two teams.  The game will be held at Multan Cricket Stadium.

Let's discuss this year's PSL 2023

I also want to ask....!
• is it possible, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) or what is more familiar to cricket lovers, called Twenty20, will be staked on the crypto casino gambling site that is here.

To be honest, some Pakistani representative cricket players for international I have watched them in several international cricket tournaments such as: Moh Rizwan, Moh Hasnain, Moh Hafeez, I often see them in several international cricket tournaments.

As you mentioned Twenty20 professional cricket league will take place from February to March, if Pakistan cricket tournament is loaded to open bets on crypto gambling site located here, maybe this thread will be the longest thread during the tournament, maybe also I'm interested in predicting and betting for the team that I think is good to bet on during the tournament, I'm sure the cricket gambling addicts here think the same thing, even though this is the Pakistan League, not much different from the Turkish, African, Spanish and other leagues.

If you are following cricket, then you may know about this league too. We have IPL (Indian Premier league), BBL (Big Bash League) , PSL (Pakistan Super league) and few more which are played every year and players from all around the world take part in this entertaining T20 tournament. PSL is one of the famous league although no league is better than IPL.

As far as your question for betting on PSL is concerned, you may keep track at https://stake.com/sports/upcoming/cricket, the odds will surely open before the tournament first match that is to be played on 13th February.

This edition of Pakistan Super League is the eighth edition. Best wishes to the teams who will participate in this Pakistan Super League.

[Sithara007]

So in India, the matches will be telecasted live by SONY? Online streaming would be available in SONY LIV and the TV broadcast will be on SONY Sports HD. I would prefer SONY over Disney-Star, because the quality is much better. BTW, I liked the schedule. They are moving the league to February-March window, which will avoid clashes with other leagues such as the BBL, BPL, ILT20 and the SA20. And despite tough competition from the other franchise leagues, PSL has managed to sign up quality overseas players, including David Wiese, Rashid Khan, Sherfane Rutherford and Jason Roy.

[Fuso.hp]

The eighth season of Pakistan Super League PSL will be held from February 13. Pakistan Cricket Board has already taken many programs around PSL. But this time Shahid Afridi has given some new conditions of PSL for every Pakistani players. He said that this time in PSL those whose strike rate will be below 130 will not be selected for T20 national team. I think his initiative will make their T20 cricket more efficient and stronger.

Pakistan's most popular T20 league Pakistan Super League is going to start this year like every year. Pakistan is going to play the 8th edition after completing 7 editions of this T20 league. Their T20 league is going to start from next 13th and this league will continue till next 19th March. PSL 2023 is going to start with 6 teams as per previous pattern. Where Multan Sultans and Lahore Qalandars are participating in the first match, the match will be held at Multan Cricket Stadium. This year also they will create a big hype in the cricket world. This tournament will be broadcasted by the reputed broadcasters so the cricketing world will get to watch it from all over the world.

Well.. it will rank among the top-5 franchise T20 leagues currently, despite stiff competition. The last edition witnessed massive upsurge in terms of viewership (PSL 7 or the 2022 edition). It was estimated that 73% of the Pakistanis with a TV set at home watched the PSL last year (144 million people).  According to Rameez Raja, for PSL7 the profits were 71% higher compared to the previous edition, and each of the franchises earned around PKR 900 million as average revues. I am not sure about this edition (PSL8), because the Pakistani Rupee has got devalued and the country is going through a financial crisis.

Pakistan has population of 220 million who are crazy for cricket. So it was very much expected that PSL will be a super hit in there own country. There is no major change in PSL 8 as we have still 6 teams playing. It will be too early to say how much profit PSL 8 will generate but my rough guess is it will earn atleast what they earned last year.
In India, Sony Pictures (SPNI) has got media and OTT rights for PSL broadcast till 2023.

I think many people are waiting for the start of Pakistan Super League in Pakistan. Because I am looking forward to enjoy a different game in Pakistan. But we have to wait for some more days. I have seen some new rules this time.  But this time Pakistan Super League will be a different game I think.

The popularity and viewership of psl will be maximum in Pakistan as everyone watches psl and the revenue interns of game and media rights will be good . But yes we'll see hoe the currency issue will effect the revenues in long term.

Yes, Pakistan nation is a big fan of cricket and we usually see jam-packed stadiums in previous versions of PSL and same is expected in this season. Its always nice to see matches in full crowded stadiums as it makes the match viewing more enjoyable.

However, when you say, the currency issue what exactly are you referring to ? Bear in mind, that tickets and all other stuff is being done with fiat money and no bitcoin crypto is involved in PSL. Yeah betting may be done in crypto on these matches but that's all underground and not done publicly.

Ground realities are completely different from things which are happening on media mostly peoples still living better life even due to mismanagement few difficulties are happening but still situation is under control and mostly peoples will enjoy this season as they were doing in previous editions and officially PCB never encourage any betting with this all is not related to them and I check many fiat and crypto related sports betting sites are offering their services without any problem those are having account on these sites can enjoy this all which could be normal as we have in many other sporting events around the world.
 
But, here I want to ask @UmerIdrees OP of this thread please add some links related to more information about previous editions because many members are not aware about previous winners, and they want to check stats even this all is easy by google but still if he adds here this could be more helpful for community.

There are limitations for the TV channels and OTT platforms in Pakistan in earning revenue from cricket broadcast. Because there are so many regulations and content sharing requisites. I assume that a large share of the revenue comes from countries such as the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom, as they have very large Pakistani diaspora communities. But the momentum that was gained from last edition (PSL 2022) should be maintained. I am concerned because of two factors - 1. economic situation in Pakistan is not good 2. security situation has worsened over the last few months.

[Hamza2424]

First of all, this is a very good start by the UmerIdress I think still some days are left in the start of PSL S8 and I am pretty excited for the PSL simple reason I am disconnect from cricket for a long time but I think PSL is worth watching. The friendly match rumors and news were so great as 6 Sixes by the Iftkhar chacha was incredible. Rest of the discussion i think thread will be more active once season starts.
