Scared Already? Alex Hales Posts Hilarious Message After Seeing Smoke Outside Stadium In Pakistan

Pakistan is all set to host the entire Pakistan Super League (PSL) for the very first time since the league started in 2016. Due to the security reasons, Pakistan had to host the major part of the competition in the last four seasons in UAE. The entire first edition of the PSL in 2016 was staged in the UAE before the PCB held the 2017 final at Lahore.

In 2018, four matches were organized at Lahore and Karachi – with the rest in the UAE – while last year Karachi hosted eight matches. But with the security situation improving in recent times, the Pakistan Cricket Board decided to host the entire competition in Pakistan.

Pakistan has long been trying to win back the confidence of foreign countries and have managed to convince a number of nations and players to visit the country in the last one year or so. A total of 36 foreign players will play this year for six local franchises – Quetta Gladiators, Islamabad United, Multan Sultans, Karachi Kings, Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi.

Well, the PSL has not even started and it looks like Alex Hales is scared. The England star, who will play for Karachi Kings, posted a cheeky message on his Instagram story on Thursday after seeing smoke coming out of the stadium. Alex Hales took a picture of that scene and hilariously wrote:

“Looks promising”

Here is the post from Alex Hales:

Meanwhile, only four cities will host the entire competition. Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi and Multan will host the 34 games this year. Out of the 34 games, Lahore has 14 matches, including the final on March 22. The season starts today with defending champions Quetta Gladiators taking on Islamabad United.
