      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cricket fans will be allowed into the stadium for the final of the ongoing HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) 11 after Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif gave a go-ahead, reversing earlier restrictions imposed under austerity measures.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An announcement in this regard was made by Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi on Saturday.&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to Mohsin Naqvi, he had requested the prime minister to allow fans into the stadium for the final match.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Naqvi said the prime minister was in favour of permitting spectators and approved the decision following requests from franchise owners.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He added that the prime minister had emphasised the importance of austerity measures but agreed to allow fans to attend the final as a special case.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Naqvi thanked the prime minister for the decision.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PSL 11 final is scheduled to be held in Lahore on May 3.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Earlier, as part of cost-cutting measures, spectators had not been allowed to attend PSL matches this season.&lt;/p&gt;
