The revised date for initial bids is now December 24, though the PCB hasn&#8217;t issued an official update yet.<\/p>\n<p>Curious case! Why Ajit Agarkar &amp; Co. continue to ignore Ishan Kishan<\/p>\n<p>PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi first announced the shift from December 15 to December 22 during a PSL roadshow in New York last week. No explicit reason surfaced for this further delay, but it&#8217;s widely seen as stemming from subpar technical bids for the new teams, with a final auction slated for January 6\u2014open only to shortlisted candidates post-evaluation.Reports note PCB&#8217;s aggressive roadshows in London and New York to lure foreign capital rather than relying solely on domestic buyers.On another front, the Multan Sultans&#8217; future remains murky since ex-owner Ali Tareen quit over a clash with the board. Unofficially, the PCB eyes self-managing the side for the next season, then re-tendering rights for a nine-year term before PSL 12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has extended the submission deadline for bids on its two new Pakistan Super&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":328705,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[128533,1721,64926,97981,21243,95294,128534,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-328704","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-bid-deadline","9":"tag-cricket","10":"tag-mohsin-naqvi","11":"tag-multan-sultans","12":"tag-pakistan-cricket-board","13":"tag-pakistan-super-league","14":"tag-psl-roadshow","15":"tag-sports","16":"tag-uk","17":"tag-united-kingdom","18":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328704","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=328704"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328704\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/328705"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=328704"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=328704"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=328704"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
