The final of PSL’s landmark season X is set after Lahore Qalandars stormed into the title clash by delivering a dominant 95-run demolition of Islamabad United, booking their ticket to face Quetta Gladiators.
On a night where everything clicked, Lahore’s top order fired with intent, their bowlers brought the heat, and Islamabad simply had no answers—losing their seventh match in a row at this very venue.
Batting first, Lahore posted a daunting 202 for 8, powered by a blistering 61 off 35 balls from Kusal Perera and a rapid 50 off just 25 by the exciting youngster Mohammad Naeem. Though wickets tumbled in the final overs, quickfire cameos from Bhanuka Rajapaksa (22 off 13) and Asif Ali (15 off 7) kept the momentum going.
Chasing 203, Islamabad’s reply was in ruins immediately.
They lost Muhammad Shahzad and PSL X’s leading run-scorer Sahibzada Farhan within the first two overs, and by the time Rassie van der Dussen and Imad Wasim followed, the scoreboard read 33 for 4—a collapse Lahore’s bowlers orchestrated with ruthless efficiency.
Shaheen Shah Afridi, leading from the front, finished with 3 for 3 in just 3.1 overs, while Salman Mirza also picked up three key wickets. Rishad Hossain bagged 3 for 34, including the prized wickets of Shadab Khan, Salman Agha, and James Neesham, halting any flicker of a comeback.
Islamabad folded for just 107 in 15.1 overs, crashing out in disappointing fashion.
For Lahore, this was redemption. A side that had to claw its way through the playoffs is now one win away from lifting the PSL X trophy but Standing in their way in the final will be the most in-form team of the tournament, Quetta Gladiators—setting up a high-stakes showdown between two of the most passionate fanbases in the league.
The PSL X final promises fireworks, and Lahore will arrive with momentum, firepower, and belief.
