Corbin Bosch Served Notice by PCB Over PSL Contract Breach
The PCB's move is seen as a measure to protect the interests of the PSL and its franchises, and to prevent a potential exodus of players to the IPL. The board's concerns are understandable, given the overlapping schedules of the two leagues and the potential for players to prioritize the more lucrative IPL contracts.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has served a legal notice to Corbin Bosch, a South African all-rounder, for breaching his contractual obligations by withdrawing from the Pakistan Super League (PSL) to join the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Bosch was signed by the Mumbai Indians as a replacement player for the IPL 2025, which overlaps with the PSL season. The PCB has asked Bosch to justify his actions and outlined the repercussions of his departure from the league, expecting a response within a stipulated time frame. The board is concerned that Bosch's actions could set a precedent for players signing with the PSL only to switch to the IPL.
The PSL and IPL are running concurrently this season, with the PSL from March 22 to May 25 and the IPL from April 11 to May 18. The PCB had shifted its window to improve the quality and availability of overseas players, but the concurrent scheduling with the IPL has raised concerns about player commitments. Bosch was drafted by Peshawar Zalmi in the diamond category during the PSL 2025 draft and was expected to play a key role for the franchise.
The PCB's decision to serve a legal notice to Bosch highlights the board's commitment to upholding the contractual obligations of players and ensuring the integrity of the PSL. The outcome of this case will be closely watched, as it may have implications for the future of player contracts and commitments in the PSL and IPL.
