What were changes and Why? All you need to know
It was very astonishing when the organizers and the officials had announced the prize money of the teams for PSL in the past few years as it had been exactly the same. The fourth season also did not gain momentum on the part of the players as the prize money wasn’t up to the mark. With the various alliances looking good, PSL should build the prize money to stay at the top of its game.
However, after the first few seasons and the disappointing rewards, finally, the organizers had decided to increase the money prize for the teams. The top 4 teams, as well as sun categories, will be rewarded with a heft sum of prize money. Fans are now eagerly waiting to see who might sweep all the awards.
