Multan Sultans Owner Threatens Legal Action, Says PSL Is 'Ghosting' Renewal

The row centers on a renewal cycle with higher fees plus short reply windows during the league’s franchise reassessment.

Overview

  • Ali Khan Tareen said repeated emails, a legal notice and a letter to the PCB chairman seeking Multan’s valuation and renewal offer drew no response.
  • The PCB previously stated renewal offers were sent to "all compliant PSL franchises," while other teams confirmed receiving letters, highlighting a direct dispute over Multan’s status.
  • Franchise owners reported a minimum 25% increase in annual fees with roughly 10 days to accept renewal terms.
  • Tareen warned he will go to court if the silence continues, saying even rival franchise representatives have questioned Multan’s exclusion from the process.
  • The standoff follows months of friction that included a PCB legal notice and Tareen’s public shredding of that letter after warnings of possible disciplinary action.
