*I hope I´m getting them right.*

1. Both Peshawar and Quetta have lost two finals each and also won one.

2. The final that both won came against each other.

3. One of the two finals that each lost, it came against the other.

4. Both have lost a final each against Islamabad.

5. Karachi have always made it to the play-offs but have never made it to a final.

6. In both editions that they´ve played in so far, Multan have stayed the second worst team on the points table.

7. Lahore have always ended up being the last team on the points table.

What all these facts ultimately suggest is the hold of Islamabad, Quetta and Peshawar in all four seasons, and also the lack of competitiveness from the other three teams. I hope that the trend changes soon as otherwise I fear lest it gets too predictable.

Not that much history to think about strange facts :)

LQ being last every time is more of a tragedy than a fact!
 
none of those are strange facts.. they are just minor coincidences (if that)

a strange fact would be: the highest number of runs scored in an over is 77

Yeah, not that much of history here I admit. Just four seasons, which´s why I added ".... so far" in the thread title.

Facts 2 and 3 are pretty much the same thing:))

Haha, could be:))! But I just read them again, and I could be missing here something, but how are they the same? Just asking....

Alright, I wouldn´t mind them being called coincidences. :)

If both won finals against each other, obviously they both lost finals against each other too, doesn't really need to be pointed out.

It's similar to that graphic they had a couple of years ago in the Asia cup where it said soemthing along the lines of "whenever India won, Pakistan lost."
 
Just shows how bad LQ are and how KK always flop in the crucial moments. Hopefully these teams get it right soon as there needs to be more competition.

Seriously, was I just being so dumb as not to understand this simple fact :facepalm:! Unbelievable! Thank you for correcting me brother, but no thank you for bringing upon me my life´s most embarrassing moment on this forum!

Exactly. For the sake of the tournament, we hope that we see a difference the next edition. We need Karachi, Multan and Lahore to step up soon.
 
MS KK and LQ need better squad selection and tactics.

Some good players not being spotted by these 3 teams.
