Psl 8 or Pakistan super league is pride of PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) and the people of Pakistan. Earlier this year, PCB announced the dates of PSL 8, PSL 2023, and player drafts that happened in Karachi on the 28th of January.
After the announcement of the PSL 8 / PSL 2023 schedule, crazy fans were waiting for this year's player lists for Karachi kings, Multan sultan, Lahore qalandar, Peshawar Zalmi, Islamabad United, and Quetta Gladiators.
With sponsors pouring millions of dollars into PSL 8 / PSL 2023 franchises, fans spotted something strange with this year's Psl 8. The sponsors were not so common in our country. Karachi Kings titanium Sponsor 1xBat/1xbet was yet another new player in the PSL 8 sponsorship race. Following the trend here comes another sponsor wolf777news aka wold777 betting website sponsoring Multan Sultan.
Melbat aka melbet was in the scene but still, no one noticed it this year PSL 8 sponsors were making a lot of noise. In fact, all of these sponsors in PSL 8 are gambling websites, and in-country like Pakistan, Gambling is banned and is considered Haram in our religion.
We have no idea why PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) is allowing these gambling websites to operate in the country and sponsors teams in ongoing PSL 8. PSl highlights are full of these gambling websites promotions.
Peshawar Zalmi was the only team who took it to social media and registered their protest with PCB (Pakistan cricket board) on why they are allowing these gambling websites to operate freely in Pakistan. Along with Peshawar Zalmi, Karachi king last year PSL 7 coach, Rashid Latif also bashed PCB (Pakistan cricket board).
