It is pertinent to mention that some cricket fans have boycotted PSL 9 and #BoycottPSL is trending on X (formerly Twitter) due to PCB’s partnership with KFC Pakistan amid Israeli atrocities taking place in Gaza, which has resulted in over 20,000 deaths with majorities of the causalities being children.
KFC is owned by Yum! Brands, a company with a pro-Israel stance that is reportedly providing free meals to the IDF soldiers as they continue to kill innocent Palestinian children.
