we need to make a professional cricket league with home and away matches and have city teams rather than franchise teams like WAPDA and PIA to determine the champion of the national league with it having every year. Also, with the league we should have this kind of knockout tournaments as well. PCB should really look into this as this will grow popularity as well as revenues for the PCB as everyone will get behind their respective cities and come to watch the beautiful game of cricket.
