The three-time Pakistan Super League champions, widely regarded as one of the most popular and successful franchise sides in global cricket, will be returning to the tournament after featuring in its inaugural edition. Their participation is expected to further elevate the stature and global appeal of the competition.
Over the years, Lahore Qalandars have built a strong reputation both on and off the field, becoming one of the most commercially valuable franchises in the PSL, as highlighted by an EY MENA (Ernst & Young) valuation that ranked them among the top teams in the league.
Speaking on the announcement, Team Owner Sameen Rana expressed delight at the franchise’s return, emphasizing the platform’s importance in showcasing talent, culture, and long-term player development. He also highlighted the opportunity to feature players from their development program on an international stage.
Global Super League Chairman Clive Lloyd also welcomed the franchise back, describing them as one of the most dynamic T20 teams in world cricket whose presence significantly boosts the quality and profile of the tournament.
With participation from top franchises across cricketing nations, the Global Super League continues to grow as a premier global T20 competition.
