The Pakistan Super League 2024 season began on Saturday, February 17, with the first match against two-time champions Islamabad United and reigning champions Lahore Qalandars. The tournament is now in its ninth season. 

Every single one of the six franchises has won the trophy at least once during the PSL history. The defending champions Lahore Qalandars and the inaugural winners Islamabad United are the most successful teams in the PSL, having won it twice apiece. Qalandars are the only team to win the tournament twice in a row.

According to the PSL 2024 schedule, each team will play the other five teams twice, in a double round-robin style. The top four teams in the standings after all league matches will advance to the playoffs.

The top two teams in the standings will face off in the Qualifier 1 for a spot in the final. The third and fourth-place teams will face off in Eliminator 1 to advance to Eliminator 2. The winner of Eliminator 1 will compete against the loser of Qualifier 1 in Eliminator 2 for the remaining slot in the final.

The PSL 2024 final will take place in Karachi on March 18.

Many would think that the defending champions Lahore Qalandars might be at the top of their game in this PSL 2024 season. But to the surprise of many, the Shaheen Afridi-led side has had a horrible time this season. The franchise has played seven games thus far and have lost six games. LQ has three more games in hand, and are likely out of the race in this edition of the PSL. 

Previously, Peshawar Zalmi (2023), Karachi Kings (2021 and 2019), and Quetta Gladiators (2018) have qualified for the playoffs with 10 points but with a washout in their last game, the chances are very much glim.
