Just wondering how can this spoil the momentum of PSL 2021 ?

The same argument came up in the IPL discussion thread as well.

Here is my logic - if the PCB conduct the remaining 3-4 matches during the end of this year, then it can have a negative impact on next year's edition. The viewers need a break of at least 10-12 months. Else the tournament may look repetitive for them. It will be better for the PCB to call off these matches, to avoid this repetitiveness.
Today I was watching one sports channel and PCB representative was very serious about this they want to complete this in next few months even they can still do some things but he was not going with any option other then completion of this event in next few months  most chances before Twenty/20 world cup.

My advice is this - don't even think that a vaccine will be available anytime soon. Think about other methods to stop this pandemic.
Even in the movie Contagion where they hyped everything too much, they needed 6+ months to find the vaccine LOL

Anyway, what I learned is that, this process of finding vaccine and making them available in the market is a long run process and it can take 10 to 12 months.

Any, cricket update around?

I was thinking about the same that in the last few posts we are discussing about the coronavirus in the PSL discussion thread.
Nothing new found in PSL.

"If the PCB doesn't close the PSL 5 and tries to organise the remaining four or five matches including the final later this year or before the PSL 6 it will dent the hype and spoil the momentum of the next edition."

Summer will slow down the virus spread and stuffs has no scientific reference. There are too many rumors surrounding this pandemic and in the social media every single person thinks that they have something to say and they are always right. Let's just hope that we invent the vaccine ASAP.

Well.. I think I had already posted about this. Dozens of different pharmaceutical companies are working on the Coronavirus vaccine. Even here in India, 6 different pharma companies are trying to invent one. But the problem is that all of them are in development and the testing phase hasn't started yet. Testing and approval can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months.

I doubt we can ever come back to normal life style again. The virus will be gone by that time but precautions will become a mandatory part of our life. Some of the major changes will be that people will never shake hands and social distancing will be practiced and will be considered a good habit. Another major thought will be that people can work form home (as it would have been tested successful for 2- 3 months) and hence a lot of costs could be save for office rents and travel to office costs etc. The world will be different before and after covid-19.  
Not much thought about shaking hands and social distance practicing but working from home will be a good options for some startups. They can reduce the expenses but still there are needs of office, team meeting and a lot of other things that can not be done from home. Co-ordination gets hard.

Too early to say that. Even now, the number of cases and deaths are increasing with every passing day. I am getting more and more skeptical as time passes by. Some of the experts were claiming that the pandemic would slow down when the summer season starts. In the Northern hemisphere, the summer season has started, but the infection continues to spread.

If these were some domestic club cricket with local player then it was not a big deal but when it involves international players then yes it's not very easy. By the way, although no one knows which way we are moving (pandemic crisis) but November and December seems very reasonable time frame. I hope by then we will have normal lifestyle.

PCB to reschedule remainder of PSL 2020 matches in Nov, Dec: Ehsan Mani

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has reiterated that its first priority is to hold the remaining Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2020 matches later this year and has identified a window in November and December.
Just 3 matches and they can do this all any time in these months without any problem but happy we have some good news about this all in this lock down.

I don't think it would be that easy to schedule these 3 matches anytime. They need to align with the foreign players who are part of these three matches if they are free at that time and also they have to see which other tournaments are planned by the ICC at the particular time so that there is no conflict of interest for the players.

At the moment till a cure is out we do need to maintain social distancing and stay indoors. After the lockdown is over and incase there is no cure we can only keep ourself safe by following the same set of rules.

I think it is just a matter of time that a vaccine comes out in the market against his virus. Various countries are working on it and by the end of this year we should be hearing good news against this virus.

about PSL now its easy for PCB because if forieng players not available then its not a issue as we can do this all without them because completing this even is priority not bringing foriegn players for authorties.

It wouldn't be interesting to play the playoffs without the foreign players.
They should be the part of the teams.

This is just frustration which is coming because of lock down because surely we will be again normal and live as we was living for centuries in human history many things happen and then again this all become normal so please just be calm about this all and about PSL now its easy for PCB because if forieng players not available then its not a issue as we can do this all without them because completing this even is priority not bringing foriegn players for authorties.

I would say the PCB are the most realistic sport organizers around these days, looking at window of November - December to hosts just 3 cricket fixtures, meanwhile their football counter with much more cases of the pandemic keep thinking of a month or two window. It's not that bad to be optimistic, but ignoring the glaring reality is just terrible.

I don't know how viable December will be. The Big Bash League (BBL) will start by then, and players such as Haris Rauf and Ben Dunk may prefer that league rather than the PSL. Also, the MSL of South Africa will be played during November-December. But still, they need just one week and my gut feeling is that PCB will be able to pull it off.

akhjob talking about A, You reading B, then thinking about C and finally replying with D. Why Umer why  Huh  Grin Grin

This happens when you remain in a lock down for 3 weeks almost and the fresh air does not passes by.  Cheesy 
Its like living in a Jail.

@JSRAW I think Umer is a bit on context here but should have quoted Vishnu though  Grin So, I hereby pardon him for quoting me which resulted in me getting a notification alert while I was busy having dinner Tongue Jk

No matter after how many months the tournament resumes, if there is no restrictions by the coronavirus, be ready to see the full house stadiums in the last four matches. Maybe you do not know but we as a nation are cricket lovers.  Smiley

There is no doubt that there will be full capacity crowd for the playoff matches. But to build the momentum, it takes time. The popularity of PSL soared after the initial 4-5 matches. The interest came in from across the globe once it was known that the matches were of very high quality. This can be seen, if you check the TRP for the league matches. For the first few matches, the TRP was low. The momentum is lost now and it will take a lot of effort to bring it back to the previous levels. The Pakistani fans may still give their 100%, but I am not that sure about the global audience (I am someone who watched the majority of the matches LIVE on DSPORT).

We are nearing a month since the PSL stopped and to some extent, the interest in the tournament is deteriorating. I don't know how many of us would be interested to watch the Playoffs of a tournament after 6-8 months. If conditions improve, I am sure that we'll be busy watching/discussing another important series played at that time. Too much gap between the play kills the excitement, it's better to hand over the trophy to Multan IMO.

Maybe the stadium will be fully packed, but I highly doubt they'll attract the outside audience.
