The PSL had been suspended on March 4 after seven Covid-19 cases had come to light.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had immediately put the tournament, which commenced on February 20, on hold.

The PCB and the six PSL franchises had met virtually recently and decided to host the remaining 20 matches of the T20 tournament in Abu Dhabi.

The date and details of the matches will be announced later after consultation with the franchise owners, the PCB has said.

At present, defending champions Karachi Kings top the points table with six points from five matches.

Four teams, Kings, Peshawar Zalmi, Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars, had accumulated six points in the Karachi-leg, with Kings taking the top spot due to their better net run-rate.

The 2017 champions Peshawar Zalmi occupy the second spot with as many points.
