The tournament will start from February 9 to March 19 next year and will be played at four venues — Lahore, Karachi, Rawalpindi, and Multan.
Before the trade and retention window closed on Friday evening, 2017 champions Zalmi acquired Babar in the Platinum category and the first pick in the supplementary round for Haider Ali and Shoaib Malik, who will be joining Karachi Kings, the winners of the 2020 edition, in the Platinum and Diamond categories, respectively.
