PSL 2023: The full Schedule is provided here.

Cup for the Pakistan Super League. — PCB

 

After the eighth edition's schedule was released on Friday, the countdown to Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) premier event, the Pakistan Super League 2023, officially started today.

The major competition will take place in Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Multan between February 13 and March 19.

When Lahore Qalandars play Multan Sultans on February 13 in the PSL 8 opener at the lovely Multan Cricket Stadium, they will have the chance to make history.

Lahore Qalandars, who in 2022 defeated Multan Sultans by 42 runs at the Gaddafi Stadium, will now have an added motivation going into the eighth edition of the competition, with the possibility of being the first franchise to win the title.

Prior to Multan Sultans, Peshawar Zalmi had a similar circumstance when they advanced to the 2018 championship game as the defending champions but lost to Islamabad United, who won their second championship in three years, at the very last minute.

The PSL 8 will be split into two legs, with matches taking place at Multan Cricket Stadium and National Bank Cricket Arena from February 13 to February 26 and then at Gaddafi Stadium and Pindi Cricket Stadium from February 26 to March 19.

The qualifying, two elimination rounds, and the championship game will all take place from March 15–19 at the Pakistan Cricket Ground.

Three demonstration games will be played prior to the men's matches on March 8, 10, and 11 in Rawalpindi, which will serve as the soft start for the Pakistan Women's League.

Leading domestic and international athletes are anticipated to make up the two women's sides; further information will be provided when available.
