There was a plan to hold the draft in Peshawar; however, it could not be implemented. There were also talks of going to Bhurban, but no hotel rooms were available. Surprisingly, the name of Abu Dhabi was also considered.

As per sources, the draft will take place in Karachi on November 30 or the first week of December, where few foreign coaches will also attend the event. A decision will be taken after viewing the busy schedule of PCB and franchise officials.

The team owners are unhappy with the situation and termed it mismanagement from the PCB. The only response upon contact was to inform them of the decision soon.

According to sources, the top officials of a franchise may not participate in the draft for specific reasons, and they will have to be represented by someone else. One more team official is busy but now the board has decided that the fixed date will be followed.

When contacted in this regard, the spokesperson of PCB told this correspondent that work is going on to finalize the draft date; as soon as more information is available, the media will be informed.
