The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced the resumption of domestic cricket tournaments that were earlier suspended due to security concerns in the country.

Starting today, the Regional Intra-District Challenge Cup and the Inter-District U19 One-Day Tournament will continue from where they were paused, ensuring that grassroots cricket activities remain active.

The President’s Trophy Grade II will also resume on May 14. The quarter-finals will be held from May 19 to 21, followed by the semi-finals from May 24 to 26. The final match will take place from May 28 to 31.

These tournaments were previously postponed due to the deteriorating security situation, but on May 10, the PCB confirmed that competitions would continue with updated schedules.

In a related development, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Season 10 is also expected to resume soon. Sources suggest that the remaining matches may restart between May 16 and 18. All participating teams are likely to arrive in Islamabad by the night of May 14.

The PSL was suspended during its final stages, with only eight matches left, after tensions escalated between India and Pakistan. With a ceasefire now in place, there is growing hope that both PSL 10 and IPL 2025 will continue without further delays.
