The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has sent all the Pakistan Super League (PSL) franchises the proposed schedule for the 2025 season. The mega-event, which is usually held in February and March, has already announced that they’ll host the tournament from April 12 to May 20 in Karachi, Lahore, Multan, and Rawalpindi.
PSL 2025 Schedule: Venues and Season Opener
According to Cricket Pakistan, Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore will host ten matches (the most), followed by the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, where 8 matches will be played, while the National Stadium and Multan Stadium will get five matches each. The four matches left will be hosted at neutral venues.
The reason behind just 5 matches being scheduled at the National Stadium is due to the poor turnout in the PSL 2023 season, and therefore the Karachi Kings will play only five home games in 2025. The six teams will start practicing from April 7 until April 11, 2025. The season opener will be played between defending champions Islamabad United and two-time champions Lahore Qalandars in Rawalpindi on April 12.
