We would appreciate your thoughts on Lahore Qalandars. Please feel free to share your opinions in the comments section.

The Karachi Kings, under the Captaincy of  David Warner, are to commence their tournament campaign on April 12, 2025, at the National Stadium.  They will face the Multan Sultans in the third match of the tournament. The Karachi Kings will host five matches on their home ground.

Their subsequent match is on April 15, 2025, against the Lahore Qalandars, under floodlights in Karachi. On April 18, 2025 (Friday), they will encounter the Quetta Gladiators in another evening fixture in Karachi. Following that, on April 20, 2025 (Sunday), the Kings will compete against Islamabad United, and on April 21, 2025 (Monday), they are scheduled to play against Peshawar Zalmi. Both of these matches will take place in Karachi during the evening.

After the completion of these games, the Karachi Kings will travel to Rawalpindi to face Peshawar Zalmi on May 1, 2025 (Thursday), followed by a match against Islamabad United in Rawalpindi on May 10, 2025 (Saturday). Both of these encounters will also be held as night matches.

In summary, the Karachi Kings’ league stage schedule comprises five home matches in Karachi, two in Lahore, two in Rawalpindi, and one in Multan.

Karachi Kings have appointed David Warner as the new team captain, succeeding Shan Masood. Warner was the first pick in the January draft. The team’s owner, Salman Iqbal, mentioned that Warner’s experience and leadership align with their vision for the team. However, Shan Masood will continue to play an important role within the squad. Since 2020, Karachi has struggled, failing to reach the playoffs. Warner, who was previously banned from leadership due to his involvement in a ball-tampering scandal, has now had that ban lifted.

Peshawar Zalmi’s 2025 season kicks off on April 12, 2025, against Quetta Gladiators in Rawalpindi. They are going to play Multan Sultans on April 19 and Karachi Kings on April 21, then a match against Lahore Qalandars on April 24. A notable evening fixture is against Islamabad United on May 2, also in Lahore. They face Karachi Kings again on May 8 and then Lahore Qalandars on May 9 in Rawalpindi.

Saim Ayub suffered an ankle injury during the South Africa tour, which caused him to miss the Champions Trophy. His recovery took longer than anticipated, leading to his absence from the New Zealand tour. However, he is now fully fit and will be available for Peshawar Zalmi’s first match in the PSL. Ayub is considered one of the team’s top performers, and his return significantly boosts the squad.

This year, the IPL and PSL are overlapping, prompting some players, like Corbin Bosch, to seek participation in both. Bosch was selected by Peshawar Zalmi but signed with the Mumbai Indians, leading the PCB to issue a legal notice. Franchises are concerned that this trend could result in players leaving the PSL for the IPL, and discussions about banning players who switch leagues are ongoing. In response, the PCB has adjusted the PSL schedule to hold the draft after the IPL auction for better insights.

– Saim Ayub (Platinum)

– Muhammad Haris (Diamond)

– Sufiyan Muqim (Silver)

– Arif Yaqoob (Silver)

Quetta Gladiators are ready to start their 2025 season against Peshawar Zalmi on April 12 in Rawalpindi. Following this, they will play a night match against Lahore Qalandars and face Karachi Kings on April 18 in Karachi. The Gladiators will meet Lahore Qalandars again in May and take on Islamabad United in Lahore on May 3. Their final group stage match is against Islamabad United on May 7 in Rawalpindi.

Despite struggling since 2019, the Gladiators showed improvement in the last tournament and are confident to compete in at least ten matches. Historically, they were strong contenders, winning the championship in 2019 and being runners-up in 2016 and 2017.

A significant concern for the Gladiators is that they have not played in their home venue, Bugti Stadium, and neither has Peshawar Zalmi. This absence of home matches raises the need for the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to schedule PSL games in both cities for fair competition.

Multan Sultans will get their campaign underway with their first match on April 12, 2025, against Karachi Kings at the National Stadium in Karachi. The team is scheduled to play 10 group-stage matches, with their final game on May 10 against Quetta Gladiators at Multan Cricket Stadium. This season, their goal is not just to reach the final but to win the PSL trophy.
