Islamabad United captain Misbah-ul-Haq on Wednesday said the hosting of the Pakistan Super League final in Lahore is a positive development for cricket in Pakistan and its fans.
"It is a positive development for cricket in Pakistan and for the fans who have missed out on international cricket in the country," said Haq.
He added that the fans can get involved in the game more if they are watching it in Lahore as not everyone can travel to the United Arab Emirates to attend PSL matches.
"It is an exciting experience for the fans and the players that the final would be played in Lahore," said the United skipper.
When asked about the upcoming tour to West Indies and whether he would announce his retirement, Haq said his fans would soon find out abo.
On being asked the same question again, he joked and said "It seems the entirety of Pakistan cricket revolves around my decision".
Earlier, welcoming the decision to host the PSL final in Lahore, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Shaharyar Khan said the move would also help resume international cricket in Pakistan.
“A successful final in Lahore will definitely send a positive message to all that the security situation in Pakistan is getting better,” the chairman had said on Tuesday.

PSL 2017: Zalmi wins by 17 runs against Qalandars
-
Lahore Qalandars lost the match against Peshawar Zalmi by 17 runs after a poor batting display from the side in 16th fixture of the Pakistan Super League.
Despite late heroics by Sohail Tanvir, the earlier collapse of the bating order proved to be the undoing for the side.
Tanvir hit two sixes and just as many fours for a total contribution of 36 runs off 29 balls.
Qalandars continued their downward trend towards the tail-end of their innings and had lost eight wickets while scoring 130 by the 18th over in the 16th fixture of the Pakistan Super League.
Tail-enders from Qalandars stood their ground and made the best of the situation. Starting with Narine, who made 21, the other batsmen who followed made scores in the 20s.
Qalandars faltered under the bowling blitz unleashed by Zalmi and lost six wickets in as many overs in their match.
The openers for Qalandars contributed 38 runs between them, but the four batsmen who followed made a disappointing addition of just five runs.
The middle-order for the Qalandars displayed a severe lack of understanding for Zalmi's bowling and paid the price. Umar Akmal made one and was again caught leg before.
Qalandars were given a target of 167 runs after Peshswar Zalmi's innings ended.
From Zalmi's side, Afridi made a poor showing once again after he was run out, with Kamran Akmal remaining the highest scorer and Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan scoring the second highest at 30.
Zalmi recovered from their sluggish start after losing Tamim Iqbal, their opener along with Akmal, Iqbal early in the game.
Zalmi had scored 78 for the loss of two wickets at the end of the 10th over. Akmal had steadied the innings but was stumped off a ball by Yasir Shah. Akmal's contribution of 58 off 40 balls played a vital role in keeping the scoreboard ticking.
Tamim left Akmal early on the crease and contributed a mere five runs before returning to the pavilion. he fell far short of his average of 30.92 in T20s.
Peshawar Zalmi had won the toss and elected to bat against Lahore Qalandars.

Karachi Kings keep PSL dreams alive by beating Lahore Qalandars
In a thrilling encounter, Karachi Kings beat Lahore Qalandars by five wickets in the 18th fixture of the Pakistan Super League which was played at the Dubai Cricket Stadium in Dubai on Saturday.
https://twitter.com/thePSLt20
19.6 SIX! Aamer Yamin to Kieron Pollard
Kieron Pollard played a blistering knock of 45 off just 20 balls, seeing Karachi Kings home on the last ball of the match.
Kings required 14 runs in the final over to chase down the 156-run target set by Qalandars, and Pollard did it in style by smashing a six on the last ball.
It's that man Babar again who's leading the Kings charge with Sangakkara. Make or break passage of play for the Qalandars!
Batting first, Qalandars had scored 155 runs for the loss of six wickets in their allotted 20 overs.
In reply, Karachi Kings swiftly pursued the target. Opener Babar Azam lead the chase for Kings, scoring 49 off 42 ball, which included seven boundaries.
https://twitter.com/thePSLt20
Wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan and skipper Brendon McCullum were the leading run scorers for Qalandars with 32 and 31 runs respectively.
Qalandars recover well in the final overs to post a competitive 155/6. Can the bowlers restrict the powerful Kings batting?
Both teams are sporting one change each as Kings have replaced Chris Gayle by Mahela Jayawardene while Mohammad Irfan (Jr) is filling in for Ghulam Mudassar in the Qalandars' lineup.
This is a crucial match as the result would determine if the Qalandars make it to the play-offs.
