The 11th Pakistan Super League (PSL) will begin on March 26, 2026, without spectators, held exclusively in Karachi and Lahore due to regional tensions from the West Asia conflict and fuel shortages. The tournament, scaled back from six cities, will be played behind closed doors with no opening ceremony, and fans will receive refunds. Franchises will be compensated for lost revenue. PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi cited government consultations and resource conservation as key reasons, while warning of legal action against players who breach contracts or join rival leagues. The playoff final is set for May 3 at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium.
