The Pakistan Super League (PSL) will resume on Saturday 17 May after its postponement because of the hostilities between India and neighbouring Pakistan.
The tournament was suspended over safety concerns on 8 May, and plans to play the rest of the matches in the United Arab Emirates were then scrapped.
There are eight games remaining, with the final to be played on 25 May - one week later than its originally scheduled date.
All remaining matches will be played in Rawalpindi and Lahore.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) was also postponed but it has since been confirmed that it will resume on Saturday as well, with all outstanding fixtures rescheduled.
The PSL schedule change means that Pakistan's series against Bangladesh will likely be rearranged, as the first T20 was set for the new date of the final.
The league's overseas players had all left Pakistan once the suspension was confirmed, and it is unlikely that they will return to the country.
Sam Billings, James Vince and David Willey were among the English players participating.
There are four PSL group matches left to play before a knockout stage that features a qualifier, two eliminators and the final, which will take place at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
The qualifier involves the top two sides in the six-team group table, with the winner reaching the final. The team finishing third will play fourth in the first eliminator, with the winner facing the loser of the qualifier for the second spot in the final.
Leaders Quetta Gladiators are the only side to have secured a knockout spot, with bottom-placed Multan Sultans the only team eliminated.
