The six-team tournament will be played over a 35-day period. Each team will face all other teams twice in the league stage before a four-match knockout leg to be played entirely in Lahore next month. With as many as five teams lifting the PSL trophy once each thus far, it will be interesting to see if any of them wins a PSL title for the second time or Islamabad United manages to win it for a record third time.
