When asked about whether foreign players have expressed any reservations, Mani said: "So far all the foreign players have agreed to play in Pakistan and team owners have confirmed the same to me."

"We are monitoring the situation closely and will talk to the government if needed," he added.

The chairman further said that "India is hosting matches and there is no change in their schedules. The same goes for us."

The last eight matches of the total 34 matches of PSL 2019, will be played in Pakistan — with three in Lahore and five in Karachi.
