Rescheduled indefinitely, in other words, not happening anytime soon.

The PCB management has decided to reschedule the event and move it to a period where there are fewer scheduling conflicts, and the stakeholders get enough time to develop their business plans.- This basically means PCB needs more time to beg and plead players to come to Pakistan.

move it to a period where there are fewer scheduling conflicts, - PCB has decided to host 3 day event from Feb 29th-31st.

The PSL business model - unveiled on January 10 - was expected to fetch the PCB "in excess of $100 million over the years." - Yeah, in next 100 years.

It was to feature five teams and 23 matches, to be played at a single, as yet undisclosed, venue. You are trying to host an event in an undisclosed venue ?? In some secret cave in Abbottabad ?

The PCB had also announced the base prices of players at a proposed auction though they didn't reveal the pool of players who had signed up for the tournament. - Cuz they have none to declare !!

Over 15 potential franchise buyers, around 10 top broadcasters and various potential sponsors from large business houses have collected the bid documents and shown extremely keen interest in acquiring respective rights," Butt said. "However, there are several other investors who would like us to give them more time for our various rights."
- 10 broadcasters ?? Really ?? Who are they ?
All I hear potential, several, undisclosed, proposed, did not reveal, supposed to blah blah blah.
Nothing concrete, nothing definite, nothing substantial.
Shooting blanks.

But one thing PCB should get credit for is the way they write these press release/memo/ news.
Very professional and well written and exactly how it should be done. Conceals all fault and use optimistic positive words for the fans to look out for something.Unless you can read between the lines, you'd almost believe them.
