The 2026 Pakistan Super League (PSL 11) match between Peshawar Zalmi and RawalPindiz, scheduled for 28 March at the Imran Khan Cricket Stadium, is reportedly under review due to security concerns raised by the Australian government.

Australian journalist Daniel Cherny reported that the fixture is “likely” to be relocated, as travel advice currently discourages Australians from visiting Peshawar, potentially affecting the participation of key players.

Impact on Australian Players

Notable Australian cricketers, including Aaron Hardie (Peshawar Zalmi) and Jake Fraser-McGurk (RawalPindiz), have been advised against traveling to Peshawar for the match. Cricket Australia has reportedly communicated these advisories to the PCB, raising uncertainty about their availability for the fixture.

Despite the concerns, the Pakistan Cricket Board’s official schedule, as of 18 March 2026, still lists the game in Peshawar, with discussions ongoing regarding a possible venue change.
