The PCB and the caretaker Punjab government have reached an impasse over the security expenditures for the Lahore and Rawalpindi legs of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season eight.

The Punjab government demanded that PCB pay PKR 500 million in order to secure the second leg of the ongoing extravaganza. At the same time, the cricket board refused to pay the stipulated sum.

After the impasse, the PCB and the six franchises held several meetings to discuss potential solutions, one of which was moving the entire second leg to Karachi.
