LAHORE, FEB 27, (DNA) – Government of Punjab has permitted Pakistan Cricket Board to hold final match of Pakistan Super League 2017 in the provincial capital.

The decision of the government has come in during a conundrum after the odds of Lahore hosting the final match ebbed following a suicide blast on February 13 claiming 14 lives.

The cricket authority forwarded a summary over the issue to the Government of Punjab on Saturday paving way for the decision. Chief Minister of Punjab, Shehbaz Sharif presided over a meeting of the apex committee on Sunday to deliberate over the issue and review the security situation.

Earlier today, Law Minister of Punjab, Rana Sanaullah said that the government would give out the decision within a day or two.
