Pakistan Super League – Willey said that based on size alone, no league can ever come close to the experience of being a part of the IPL. (Sportzpix) Former England opener David Willey has said that players choosing the Pakistan Super League (PSL) over the Indian Premier League (IPL) can be explained by the fact that the IPL offers more guarantees of game time than the latter.

Faf du Plessis and Moeen Ali have ruled themselves out of the IPL and are ready to play in the PSL. Glenn Maxwell has also decided not to enter the IPL ring this time and it is believed that he may also join the PSL. All three have been regulars in the IPL for over a decade.

“I think it’s very personal,” Wiley told Hindustan Times. “You probably never know how the IPL auction will play out.

I think there’s a little more certainty and security with the PSL for players. And, you know, depending on individual circumstances, people may feel like they’ve got more of a chance to actually play in the PSL rather than sitting on the sidelines for 10-11 weeks, which could be a deciding factor for people. “.
