Ben Duckett says 'time to get the PSL Final in Dubai'
The England national Islamabad United player says it is probably time to move final to Dubai
LAHORE: (Web Desk) – England national Ben Duckett, who is contracted with Islamabad United in Pakistan Super League (PSL), has on Thursday said that it is probably time to move the PSL final to Dubai.
The PSL final is scheduled to be held in Lahore on March 5. The speculations about the fate of the final were put to rest on Monday by PSL chairman Najam Sethi when he confirmed that the final was going to take place in Lahore despite the terrorist attack that took place last Monday.
However, the blast in DHA Lahore today has once again resurrected the dead debate from its coffin and it is for the first time now that a foreign player associated with the league has openly spoken up about the prospects of the final to be held in Lahore.
Ben Duckett on Twitter consoled the victims of the blast and the people of Lahore over the blast today and then went on to suggest that it is ‘time to get the PSL Final in Dubai’.

There has been no statement from any of the responsible members of the board as yet on the issue however.
Earlier, Kevin Pietersen has also stated that he isn t sure about joining PSL final in Lahore, while West Indies player Darren Sammy had also abstained from commenting on the prospects of him playing the final in Lahore if his team Peshawar Zalmi made it that far.
