According to media reports, Pakistan Cricket Board had invited bids for the global media rights of PSL 11, in which Wali Technologies has emerged as the biggest bidder. PCB has given the rights for all other places except broadcasting rights in India to Wali Technologies for one year. Wali Technologies claims itself to be a company promoting ‘Made in Pakistan’ technology.
Price claimed to be 149% more expensive than last time
PSL CEO Salman Nasir said, ‘Wali Technologies has purchased global media rights at a price 149% higher than last year, which reflects PSL’s growing brand value and international demand. We are grateful to Wali Technologies for setting a new benchmark.
Last time Sony had stopped the broadcast midway
Last year, the rights to broadcast PSL in India were with Sony Sports and FanCode. However, both of them stopped the broadcast midway after the attack by Pakistani terrorists in Pahalgam, Kashmir. Besides, all the content of this league was also removed from its platform. This time the PSL will start after the T20 World Cup 2026 on March 26 and will continue till May 3. For this, bidding for players will be held on February 11.
