Which team is qualified in PSL 2023?

PSL 2023 playoffs: Are Quetta Gladiators and Karachi Kings still in qualification race? The is approaching a critical phase with the fight for four playoff spots intensifying. Defending champions Lahore Qalandars became the first team to qualify for the playoffs after they defeated Multan Sultans by 21 runs on Saturday.

• Lahore have won six of seven matches already, which was enough to ensure passage into the next round.
• Against Multan, Sam Billings (54) and Abdullah Shafique (48) lifted Lahore’s total to 180-9.
• Leg-spinner Rashid Khan landed the knockout blow during Multan’s chase with 3-15 as last year’s runners-up were restricted to 159-7.
• On Sunday, Islamabad United became the second team to qualify for the playoffs after they secured a tense two-wicket win over Quetta Gladiators.
• That leaves four teams to fight it out for the two remaining spots in the next stage of the tournament.
• While Lahore and Islamabad are definitely through, other teams still have a shot of making it to the next round.
• Multan have four wins from seven games and have room to manoeuvre as they need just one more win from three games to progress.

Peshawar Zalmi have three wins and as many defeats, which means they are still firmly in the race. However, Karachi Kings (two wins, six defeats) and Quetta (one win and six losses) are in a precarious position. Last year, Islamabad qualified for the next phase with four wins and six defeats.

1. They edged out Quetta in the playoffs race by a fraction on net run rate, with both sides tied on number of wins and defeats.
2. That means either Karachi or Quetta can make the cut this year if they achieve four wins by the end of the opening stage, provided Multan and Peshawar don’t reach five wins.
3. Peshawar and Multan face each other on Friday.

But no matter how the qualification race pans out, it is clear Quetta have fallen off a cliff. They started PSL as the strongest team, finishing as runners-up in the first two seasons and winning the fourth. However, in the past three seasons the Gladiators have finished either dead last or second last.

1. Quetta and Karachi will know on Monday if their disappointing PSL campaigns has any life left when they face off in a bottom-of-the-table clash.

Is PSL a successful league?

The decision to hold PSL at home, after years of throttling abroad, has won laurels The curtain has come down on the eight edition of Pakistan Super League. With Lahore Qalandars retaining the coveted title, for the first time in history, the game of extravaganza, fervour and thrill has won millions of hearts at home and abroad. It is a tribute to the gentleman’s game that it sticks to the cores of resilience and passion, as local and foreign players exhibited utmost sportsmanship to make it a success.

The fact that the entire episode was held uninterrupted in Pakistan, despite political and security upheavals, deserves a salute to all those who made it a success. To count the least, it has not only re-spirited the great game of cricket to galvanise talent at home, but has also brought in unprecedented economic dividends.

It was comforting to learn that the PSL had surpassed the Indian Premier League on digital rating, leading by 20 points. Likewise, it generated a bonanza of economic activity at a time when chips were down on the national front, and the commercial enterprise reportedly paid Rs70 crores in taxes to the federal government, Rs50 crores each in sales taxes, and to the provincial coffers.

Last but not least, the biggest achievement was having foreign players at home, who kept their heads high and relived the entertainment with bat and ball, invincibly drawing praise and gratitude. This edition, completely held at home, proved that the people are peace-loving and can go to any extent to support the cause of self-pride, and not a single scuffle or drawdown was witnessed anywhere.

It stands acknowledged at home and beyond. The decision to hold PSL at home, after years of throttling abroad, has won laurels. It has vindicated nationalism and put Pakistan back on the map of international cricket. Similarly, the touring of Aussies, Kiwis, Brits, Zimbabweans and West Indies to Pakistan has come as a shot in the arm, and the PSL follow-up confirmed the capacity and capability to hold big-ticket performances at home.
