The PSL‘s five teams were sold for $93 million for a period of a decade while TV rights and title sponsorship fetched around $20 million for three years.
While the teams - Karachi, Islamabad, Quetta, Lahore and Peshawar - were given a total salary cap of $1.1 million each.
The top five "icon players" in the PSL -- Chris Gayle of the West Indies, England‘s maverick Kevin Pietersen, Australian all-rounder Shane Watson, and Pakistan‘s all-round pair of Shoaib Malik and Shahid Afridi -- will earn $200,000.
On the financial side, bringing the league to Pakistan soil as soon as possible is key to its lasting success.
