LAHORE: The launching of Pakistan Premier League (PPL) received a boost when four companies expressed interests in the project, Geo News reported.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been working on the proposal to launch an international Twenty20 league in Pakistan since 2007.
Director International PCB, Intikhab Alam told Geo News that 4-5 companies are interested in the PPL and we have invited them for a presentation next week to discuss modalities of the tournament.
