News Summary:

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is reportedly considering building a stadium in Saudi Arabia before the 2026 Pakistan Super League (PSL), following a ban on fans attending matches in Karachi and Lahore during the 20-over franchise tournament. Concurrently, the board has selected five uncapped players for the upcoming tour in Bangladesh, alongside veterans like Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan. This follows the PCB's confirmation on April 20 that no written contract existed with Zimbabwe pacer Blessing Muzarabani, yet the board continues to enforce a two-year ban from the PSL. Muzarabani joined Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in IPL 2026 as a replacement for Mustafizur Rahman, having pulled out of joining Islamabad United after the PSL auction without signing a contract. Earlier that day, Muzarabani's agent, Rob Humphries, slammed the decision, stating the player could not breach a contract he never received. Humphries had first responded to the PCB's ban on April 18 with similar assertions.
