Foreign Stars Confirm Return for PSL 2025 Remaining Matches

The Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025 is back — and this time, it returns with big international names.

Top Players Returning

Several foreign players have confirmed their participation in the remaining eight matches of the tournament. These include:

David Warner – Karachi Kings
Ben McDermott
James Vince
Sikandar Raza
Luke Wood
Kushal Mendis – Quetta Gladiators
Tom Kohler-Cadmore
Najibullah Zadran

Their return adds excitement and energy as the league resumes in Rawalpindi and concludes in Lahore.

Why PSL Was Delayed

Earlier, due to regional tensions, the PCB had to postpone the tournament. Many international players flew back home. However, with the situation now calmer, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has officially announced the updated schedule.

Playoffs to be Held in Lahore

Rawalpindi will host four matches, starting May 17, while Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium will stage:

The Qualifier – May 21
Eliminator 1 – May 22
Eliminator 2 – May 23
The Final – May 25

This final leg promises world-class cricket under the lights.

IPL Faces Uncertainty

Meanwhile, the Indian Premier League (IPL) is reportedly facing uncertainty. According to available reports, some foreign players have raised safety concerns. Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc’s wife, Alyssa Healy, described a recent match experience in Dharamsala as “disturbing” due to sudden light failures during the game.

While every league has its challenges, cricket fans worldwide are now closely watching how both PSL and IPL unfold.
