The three-time PSL champions are set to return to the global tournament after featuring in its inaugural edition, underlining their growing stature in franchise cricket and the rising importance of cross-league competitions.
Team owner Sameen Rana expressed excitement over the return, highlighting the opportunity to showcase both established stars and emerging talents from their development program.
“We are delighted to return to the ExxonMobil Global Super League. The inaugural edition was a fantastic platform for high-quality cricket and meaningful global engagement, and we are proud to once again represent Pakistan on this stage. Lahore Qalandars has always stood for pushing boundaries and this tournament allows us to showcase our talent, our culture, and our ambition to a global audience. I am particularly excited to bring our exciting Player Development Program talent to the GSL this year.”
GSL chairman Clive Lloyd also welcomed the franchise back, calling them one of the most dynamic teams in world T20 cricket.
The squad for the tournament is yet to be announced, but Bangladeshi players Parvez Hossain Emon and Mustafizur Rahman, who have been part of Lahore’s recent setup, could be in contention depending on availability.
