A sport is not enough competitive without any rivalries. Rivalries between players and teams exist at almost all levels in almost every sport.

After the first two seasons of PSL, can you figure out some of the rival teams?

Karachi vs Lahore is, indeed, clearly one of the most hyped up competition, so here's the starter for you all...

Karachi leads by 3-1.

Karachi won only two games in the initial season of PSL, and that too against their arch rivals Lahore Qalandars!

In the second season, Lahore came back with a bang, but were thrown out of the frame yet again by Karachi in a nail-biting contest in order to qualify to the knock outs!

And whats more interesting is the trade of Sohail Khan, the highest wicket taker of the previous season, makes the rivalry even more heated up!

So which matches are you specifically looking forward to, and which teams are capable of making up mouth watering contests?
 
meh...

'Quetta vs Every team' is more exciting. :sarf2

All the overhyped teams gets thrashed by Quetta.:uak

Karachi committed grave mistake by selling Rahat and Sohail.

It will be hard for them to compete with Lahore now.
 
Yes. Rahat was a valuable member of the team. He was the cheerleader that Karachi needed but not deserved. His motivational abilities can be the difference between a victory and a defeat. :rahat

Not to forget his fielding abilities and batting.
 
Whats head to head record of Quetta vs Lahore :yk

I hope Quetta is beaten black and blue this season. Joke of a team with a very good captain.
 
Karachi vs Multan too will be interesting as Multan is the former Karachi, less or more.
 
Are there any PSL rivalries yet?

Haven`t seen any rivalries in the PSL

Karachi vs Lahore exists.

Islamabad vs Peshawar only existed till Afridi was the captain, because of which it was a Misbah vs Afridi show down always.

Except for that their isn`t any major rivalry.

I think, if marketted right, a lahore vs Multan rivalry could exist under the tag line, battle of Punjab.
 
Karachi vs Lahore (big cities)
Quetta vs Peshwar (West Pak)
Islamabad vs Multan (Punjab)
 
Quetta vs Peshawar I think is the only true rivalry atm. Karachi vs Lahore is there but both the teams have been pretty bad so it has not really sparked that much yet.
 
Karachi vs Lahore ( Major Cities Rivalry )
Multan vs Lahore (Territorial based Rivalry)
 
2016 PSL Playoffs: Quetta beat Peshawar by 1 run
2017 PSL Playoffs: Quetta beat Peshawar by 1 run
2018 PSL Playoffs: Peshawar beat Quetta by 1 run

That's an amazing stat!

Quetta vs Peshawar has been the best rivalry in PSL so far,along with Islamabad and Karachi,in which the H2H is 5-4,if I'm not wrong.
 
I hope Quetta is beaten black and blue this season. Joke of a team with a very good captain.

Yesssssssssss.
Finally my wish came true.

The dreaded Friendship almost took them home but thankfully merit prevailed.

Now friends XI should go back home and play tota udd chiriya udd.
