Colin Munro will not be available for the Islamabad United in the 2021 edition of the PSL, starting later this month, because of difficulties with finding quarantine space for his return to New Zealand after the competition. Munro was scheduled to head straight to Pakistan after the conclusion of the BBL, where he is part of the Perth Scorchers line-up. According to the rules set by the New Zealand Government, it is imperative for an individual to book a place for quarantine in advance. This proved to be a roadblock for the southpaw and it also hampered his PSL aspirations.In his conversation with ESPN Cricinfo, the dynamic batsman revealed the reason for his unavailability. Munro pointed out that the upcoming season of the PSL would conclude on March 22. However, he could not fly back to New Zealand after that, as the earliest quarantine spot available was in mid of May. The player mentioned that the Islamabad United team had retained him ahead of the season and he was disappointed in missing out on the opportunity to play for them. Irrespective of the fiasco, the player opined that this would allow him to spend more time with his family back home. A popular name in T20 circuit, Munro has played 65 T20Is for the New Zealand team and 1,102 runs at an outstanding strike-rate of 156.4. The cricketer also is the first in the history of the game to score three T20I centuries. Munro scored 248 runs at 35.42 and a strike rate of 147.61 in the previous edition of the PSL
