It is a small market like Zimbabwe and West Indies. Don't expect the hundreds of millions that the boards like England and Australia would get from such deals. And SLPL is never going to succeed. There is no cricketing structure outside Colombo. And if they restrict SLPL to Colombo, then it will be just like club cricket and no international player will be interested. 

Cricket in India grew by leaps and bounds ever since the IPL was introduced. Same with Australia after the BBL. Even domestic cricketers could earn salaries in excess of half a million USD, and this ensured a very large player pool in these two countries. England already had such a large pool, in the form of the 18 county teams (17 in England and Glamorgan from Wales).

Yes, this could get more good players to Pakistan team. Most of the time mistakes that were pointed against Pakistan cricket players is, they don't hear the words of the senior players. This went into controversy during the world cup match as well, and how the domestic cricket is taken forward will be watched by the leading cricketing teams.

But this is going to take some very long time for Pakistan as right now favoritism and politics is on his high in recent days we have many nominations on favoritism and no one merit so its not easy way for Pakistan to achieve level like Australia and England here personal likes and dislikes damaging too much for very long time.

Legend Abdul Qadir will be remembered for a long long time !!! He is no longer with us.  
I wonder if any one of you are from that time when he used to play. He had a unique bowling action.

Once after the attack that took place when Sri Lankan team was touring Pakistan most of the countries had fear in mind touring a series within Pakistan. For this reason even Pakistan organised different tournaments outside the country. Mostly in UAE and other neighboring countries. The article 370 is now the primary factor, but the political tension between the country is there before years.

The government is unable to prevent the terrorist attacks (unlike the case with India) and therefore I am not very surprised. Two years back, a single deadly attack in Parachinar resulted in the deaths of over 200 people. Recently, the 13 July 2018 bombings killed over 150 people in Balochistan. Cities such as Peshawar are under constant threat of terrorist attacks. We need to remember that the Sri Lankan cricket team was attacked the last time they visited Pakistan and a few of the players were injured. So we can't really blame them.

I would like the home matches for Pakistan to be staged in the United Arab Emirates for some more time, until the security situation in Pakistan gets better. Before staging the international matches, it may be better for them to stage the PSL there. If the entire tournament (rather than a couple of games) can be held in Pakistan without any incidents, then the international sides will be confident enough to visit the country and spend some time to play bilateral or trilateral series.

This is the best decision overall and I applaud Malinga for helping make this decision. The Pakistan government have been advised multiple times by countries from around the world to minimize these terrorist issues, but I still don't see much of a difference.

Unless their government itself does something about this, teams will always have issues with touring Pakistan.

India always play political games, but this doesn't look to be game by Indian Cricket Board. PSL won't get to be success, because their is much lack in financial support as well there is none to take forward the event. After a long they've taken step to have a tournament in the home ground. This is being stopped for the moment for some reason. Possibly this will be shifted to some nearby country.

The difference is that in India, the attacks have never occurred outside the troubled Kashmir valley since 2014. There have been no terrorist incidents in the major urban areas such as Delhi and Mumbai (which were targeted frequently during the first decade of this millenium). On the other hand, metro cities such as Peshawar, Rawalpindi and Karachi are frequently targeted in Pakistan.

It is a chain reaction. Terrorist attacks will discourage teams from visiting Pakistan. The PCB will lose valuable revenue and in the end the players are going to suffer. Those who are talented enough will try to participate in the dozens of T20 leagues that have come up all around the globe. But the unlucky ones will be pushed in to poverty and destitution.
