PSL 2021: Quetta Gladiators fixtures for Abu Dhabi leg of tournament

The Quetta Gladiators will resume their Pakistan Super League campaign on June 11 against Islamabad United.

The gladiators are currently last on the points table with only one win in the five matches they played in the Karachi leg of the tournament.

Interestingly, the last match that was played before the PSL was delayed when Quetta defeated Multan Sultans by 22 runs.

Earlier today, the PSL schedule was released after fans were eagerly anticipating the return of the league. It should be recalled that the tournament was abruptly suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic in early March.

These matches were initially planned to be played from June 1 in Karachi but a sudden spike in COVID-19 cases in the country last month forced the National Command and Operations Centre (NCOC) to deny the PCB permission to hold these matches.

The PCB then planned to move the matches to the UAE, and for the matches to be played on the same dates. However, that didn't come to fruition as according to the initial plan, the remainder of the tournament was supposed to be kicked off from June 5 and then June 7 was the date decided by the board.
