Team overview
Sialkot at a glance
Sialkot are a Pakistan Cricket Board regional side representing a seven-district cricket association in northern Punjab. The current team is a domestic regional programme, not a private city franchise: the RCA is the administrative body and PCB operates the National T20 Cup.
Captain Usama Mir's side recovered from a 40-run opening defeat against Karachi Blues by beating Lahore Blues, Abbottabad and Multan. Three wins from four group matches produced six points and a +1.294 net run rate, second place in Group B and a semi-final against Karachi Whites.
Karachi Whites chased Sialkot's 165/9 in 15.1 overs in that semi-final, ending the campaign by five wickets. Sialkot's complete main-event record was therefore five matches, three wins and two losses; there was no qualifier campaign to add.
Hasan Nawaz led the batting with 227 runs from five innings at 56.75 and a 156.55 strike rate, including an unbeaten 80 in the must-win Multan chase. Abdullah Shafique followed with 205 runs and hit 96 in the Abbottabad victory.
Usama Mir led the entire competition with 16 wickets in five matches at 10.19, including a tournament-record 6/8 against Lahore Blues and 4/36 against Abbottabad. His 86 runs at a 175.51 strike rate make him the clearest Sialkot two-skill contributor in this completed campaign.
The regional lineage includes the historic Sialkot Stallions, whose six National T20 titles and 25-match winning run remain a major part of Pakistan's domestic T20 history. Those honours are presented as regional lineage and are not mixed with the PSL's Multan Sultans or the separate Champions Cup Stallions team.

Three group wins; eliminated in the semi-final
Sialkot finished second in Group B with three wins from four and six points. Abbottabad also had six points but took first place in the final table; Sialkot then lost the first semi-final to Karachi Whites. Knockout results do not alter the published group-stage points or net run rate.

They are retained as in-season additions rather than hidden or inaccurately presented as members of the original 21-name announcement.

League and season history
Sialkot Region also competes in PCB first-class, one-day and pathway cricket. Those schedules and statistics are separate from this T20 record. Historic Sialkot Stallions honours belong to the region's T20 lineage, while the PSL team now known as Multan Sultans and the ABL Stallions Champions Cup side are distinct organisations and are not merged into this page.

Home venue
Jinnah Stadium, Sialkot
Sialkot, PakistanJinnah Stadium is the historic cricket venue in Sialkot city and appears in PCB regional scorecards. It was not a home ground for this National T20 campaign: all five Sialkot matches in 2025/26 were staged at Imran Khan Cricket Stadium in Peshawar. The wider RCA also covers district grounds across Sialkot, Gujranwala, Gujrat, Hafizabad, Mandi Bahauddin, Narowal and Sheikhupura, so the region should not be reduced to one permanent venue.

Who was Sialkot's leading all-round contributor?
Usama Mir combined 86 runs at a 175.51 strike rate with 16 wickets. This is a transparent two-skill comparison, not an official award.
Who captained Sialkot in the 2025/26 National T20 Cup?
Usama Mir captained the official squad and all five tournament matches.
Who coached Sialkot in 2025/26?
PCB's official squad release did not name the head coach or publish a team support-staff directory, so this page does not invent one from older pathway documents.
What is Sialkot's home stadium?
Jinnah Stadium is the historic cricket venue in Sialkot city, but all five 2025/26 National T20 matches were played at Imran Khan Cricket Stadium in Peshawar. The wider region uses several district grounds.
Why are 23 players shown?
PCB announced 15 main players and six reserves. Official scorecards and final averages then documented Hasan Nawaz and Sufyan Moqim as tournament participants, producing a 23-player season timeline.
What was Sialkot's biggest win in 2025/26?
A 110-run victory over Lahore Blues after scoring 210/4; Usama Mir then took 6/8, a competition-record spell.
Have Sialkot won the National T20 Cup?
The historic Sialkot Stallions lineage won six National T20 titles. The current regional team's latest campaign reached the 2025/26 semi-final.
Are Sialkot Region, Multan Sultans and ABL Stallions the same team?
No. Sialkot Region is a PCB regional side. Multan Sultans are a separate PSL franchise, and ABL Stallions are a separate Champions Cup team.
Does Sialkot play in competitions besides the National T20 Cup?
Yes. The region also fields teams in PCB first-class, one-day, inter-district and age-group competitions, but those statistics are kept separate from this T20 page.
What are Sialkot's official social handles?
No standalone official Sialkot Region team handles were found in the reviewed material. The page therefore links PCB's governing channels and labels them clearly.
When is Sialkot's next T20 match?
PCB had not published the team's next senior T20 fixture at this update, so no unconfirmed date or opponent is shown.

Updated 2026-08-10. PCB squad, scorecard, table, averages and history pages lead every current-season claim. Hasan Nawaz and Sufyan Moqim are added only because official tournament records document their participation. PCB did not publish a 2025/26 Sialkot support-staff directory or a standalone official team social account, so neither a coach nor social handle is invented.
