In a major development from the Pakistan cricket fraternity, it has been realized that PSL would once again clash with the Indian Premier League in 2026. PCB is reportedly planning to hold the event in the April-May window next year post-Ramadan, and two more teams are likely to be introduced as well. PSL probable to be rescheduled due to T20 World Cup 2026 There is the T20 World Cup 2026 to be played early next year, and that is one of the top reasons why the 11th season of PSL might be postponed. Still, as per a report by Abdul Majid Bhatti for Daily Jang, there are more than enough issues to sort out between PCB and PSL teams before any last word on PSL 2026 is decided. Therefore, the global fixture list is likely to make the clash of IPL and PSL inevitable once again, and the Pakistan league may suffer terribly from it.

Off-field tensions caused a brief hiatus for both PSL and IPL last year, and the consequences of the fight were witnessed in the Asia Cup 2025 too. When it comes to PSL, Lahore Qalandars became champions in the previous season after a heart-stopping victory in the final over Quetta Gladiators. While Pakistan is still a far cry from cracking the shortest format of the game at the international level, PCB would be hoping that their T20 league serves up more homegrown talent and adding two teams appears to be a step in that direction.
