The history of PSL is not very long. On September 9, 2015, the Pakistan Cricket Board established the Pakistan Super League with 5 teams. Islamabad United, Karachi Kings, Lahore Qalandars, Peshawar Zalmi and Quetta Gladiators were the first to join it. Due to security conditions in Pakistan, it debuted in UAE. PSL officially began on February 4, 2016. Multan Sultans joins the PSL as the sixth team in 2018. ICC included this league in their window starting in 2021. Wasim Akram and Rameez Raja were the first brand ambassadors for Pakistan Super League for 3 years. PSL Headquarters is based in Lahore. It is held annually from February – March. Currently, its 8th edition is going on but yes now in the stadiums of Pakistan, as the Government of Pakistan has put a lot of effort in making the security condition satisfactory. It started on 9th February and the final is planned on 19th March 2023.
