PSL 2025: Two England players express desire to leave PSL amid India-Pakistan political issue

Sam Billings PSL 2025

England players involved in the ongoing 10th edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL 2025) season want to leave the country following attacks by India during 'Operation Sindoor' in response to the Pahalgam terror attack in Kashmir on April 22, which claimed 26 innocent lives. After a midnight precision strike by the Indian Armed Forces on terror sites in the country, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Wednesday, May 07, promised to hold the remainder of the PSL 2025 event despite India's precision attacks and further tensions between the two countries.

However, with fears of nuclear war between the two Asian countries, the England players in the PSL face a tough decision over whether to remain in the country or leave. Seven England players—Sam Billings, James Vince, Tom Curran, David Willey, Chris Jordan, Tom Kohler-Canmore, and Luke Wood—are involved in the PSL 2025 event.
