Team overview
Lahore Qalandars at a glance
Lahore Qalandars are Lahore's professional men's franchise in the Pakistan Super League. Founded for the inaugural 2016 competition, the club is associated with the Rana family and renewed its PSL franchise agreement for a further decade before the 2026 season.
The Qalandars recovered from four consecutive last-place finishes to reach the 2020 final, then won three PSL titles in four seasons: 2022, 2023 and 2025. They were the first franchise to defend the PSL title successfully, beating Multan Sultans by one run in the 2023 final.
Their 2026 title defence ended in fifth place. Lahore won five and lost five, collected ten points and finished behind Hyderabad Kingsmen on net run rate, despite closing the league with three wins from their last four matches.
Lahore also represented Pakistan in the 2026 Global Super League in Guyana. A separate young-player group captained by Michael Bracewell and coached by Shaun Tait beat Perth Scorchers XI and Desert Vipers, lost to Guyana Amazon Warriors and San Francisco Unicorns, and finished 2–2 outside the final.
