What's the story

The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is on the verge of a legal battle as one of its franchises, Multan Sultans, have threatened to sue the league's management. Ali Khan Tareen, the owner of Multan Sultans, has warned both PSL and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) that he may have to take legal action against them. "If this ghosting continues we will have no choice but to take legal action," Tareen said in a social media post.

Management critique

Tareen's criticism of PSL and PCB management

Tareen has been vocal against the 'unprofessional' conduct of PSL and PCB management in running the league. His latest outburst comes after the PCB has not communicated regarding the renewal of his franchise contract, while other teams' agreements are reportedly being renewed. "Over the past month we have sent multiple emails to the PSL management, asking for our valuation and renewal letter (which every other team has already received). But there has been no response," he said.

Communication breakdown

Tareen's frustration over lack of communication

Tareen expressed his frustration over the lack of communication from PSL management. He said, "No response to our legal letter, no response to our emails, no response to my letter to the Chairman." Even representatives from other franchises have questioned why Multan isn't being included in the valuation and renewal process. Tareen clarified that this issue was made public because PSL Management refuses to engage with them.

Legal warning

Tareen warns of potential legal action

Tareen warned that if the situation doesn't change, his franchise will be forced to take legal action. "This entire situation is so unnecessary and could have easily been solved over tea and biscuits. But fragile egos make simple things difficult," he said. This statement follows previous attempts by Tareen to engage with the PCB after receiving a legal notice.
