PSL 2025: What You Need to Know

Pakistan Super League 2025 is back and the buzz is real. Whether you’re a die‑hard fan or just curious about the hype, this guide gives you the basics – teams, key players, match dates and the best ways to catch the action live.

Teams & Star Players

The league features six franchised teams: Islamabad United, Karachi Kings, Lahore Qalandars, Peshawar Zalmi, Quetta Gladiators and Multan Sultans. Each squad has a mix of seasoned internationals and hungry local talent. Keep an eye on Lahore Qalandars’ fast bowler Shaheen Afghan, who’s expected to lead the wicket‑tally, and Karachi Kings’ explosive batsman Iftikhar Ahmed, who can change a game in a single over.

New signings are turning heads too. Former Australian all‑rounder Glenn Maxwell joins Quetta Gladiators, while England’s fast bowler Reece Topley signs with Islamabad United. These imports add extra firepower and give young Pakistani players a chance to learn from the best.

Match Schedule & How to Watch

PSL 2025 kicks off on 15 February and runs through 30 April. The league follows a double round‑robin format, meaning each team plays every other side twice. The top four qualify for the playoffs – two qualifiers, an eliminator and the final.

All matches are streamed live on the official PSL YouTube channel and the PSL app, both offering free HD feeds. If you prefer TV, Geo Sports and PTV Sports broadcast the games across the country. For overseas fans, the Sports Tiger app provides live coverage in North America, the UK and the Middle East.

Don’t miss the “Super 8” weekend in early March when four games are packed into a single day at Rawalpindi’s Arbab Rahim Park. It’s the perfect time to see the league’s biggest moments in one sitting.

With star line‑ups, a packed schedule and multiple ways to watch, PSL 2025 promises non‑stop cricket thrills. Grab your snacks, set your reminders, and enjoy the ride – the next six weeks are going to be a cricket festival you won’t want to miss.
