Espncricinfo

The Pakistan Cricket Board unveiled its preliminary plans for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) on Sunday, including announcing Kevin Pietersen, Shakib Al Hasan and Dwayne Bravo as headline stars who had confirmed their commitment, reports Espncricinfo .
In a glitzy event at the Lahore Expo center on Sunday, the board said the five-team T20 event would be held in February 2016 but did not, however, announce the venue of the inaugural edition.
Last week, the PCB confirmed it was in talks with the Emirates Cricket Board over the possibility of hosting the tournament in the UAE, despite confirming earlier that Doha, Qatar would serve as a venue.
Shakib Al Hasan is the lone player of Bangladesh to be listed as a foreign player to be played in the PSL. Although Bangladesh cricket fans expected more players like Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim, Soumya Sarker and Nasir Hossain from Bangladesh would be included in the list.
Although Pietersen featured on the promotional video, it is understood no deal has been finalised yet. According to those privy to the talks, Pietersen has not signed on any paper yet but is likely to play in the inaugural season of the PSL.
Former Pakistan captain Ramiz Raja briefly addressed the gathering. The launch of the tournament logo, with an image of a left-arm bowler, was followed by a video message in which the players, who also included Grant Elliott, Tim Bresnan, Kieron Pollard and Darren Sammy confirmed their participation in the league.
