What are the parking spots in Karachi for PSL 2021?

KARACHI: The district administration released on Friday the parking areas for those attending the Pakistan Super League (PSL) matches in Karachi.

The administration said they have set up three parking spots near the National Stadium.

A press release said that a parking spot for the public has been set up at the Hakeem Said Ground.

Two more parking spots have been set for VIPs at the National Coaching Centre and China Ground.

As the parking spots will be far from the ground, the administration has decided to launch a shuttle service till the stadium. 

Earlier this week, the sale of tickets went online for the upcoming PSL's sixth edition.

The ticket sales went live after the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC), allowed to the PCB to let 20% of the crowd attend the matches.
