India and Pakistan's cricket relations remain complicated, primarily due to political tensions between the two nations. Currently, India has no plans to tour Pakistan for bilateral series or the Pakistan Super League (PSL). The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) maintains a stance against bilateral cricketing ties in Pakistan, citing security concerns and political reasons. The teams only face off in ICC tournaments or Asia Cups at neutral venues.
There have been discussions about reviving cricket ties, possibly at neutral venues like Australia or the UAE, but no concrete plans are in place. Cricket Australia's interest in hosting an India-Pakistan series highlights the global appeal of the rivalry, yet logistical and diplomatic challenges make this unlikely in the near future
.For now, Pakistan continues to strengthen its domestic tournaments like the PSL and prepare for international fixtures independently. The Indian players' participation in the PSL or tours to Pakistan would require significant policy changes, which seem distant under current circumstances.
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2024 is scheduled to start on February 17, 2024, with the opening match featuring the defending champions, Lahore Qalandars, against Islamabad United at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. The tournament will run until March 18, 2024, concluding with the final in Karachi.
A total of 34 matches will be played across four venues: Lahore, Karachi, Rawalpindi, and Multan. Each team will play group-stage matches, with the playoffs scheduled to begin on March 14, leading up to the championship match

If you're interested in keeping up with the league, the fixtures, venues, and rosters of the teams have been finalized, making this season highly anticipated by cricket fans worldwide!
