About Peshawar Zalmi
Peshawar Zalmi are the defending champions and the league's great survivors. They won in 2017 when the final came home to Lahore, reached four more finals without winning, and finally ended a nine-year wait in PSL 11: top of the league stage with 17 points and just one defeat, then a five-wicket win over Hyderabad Kingsmen in the final. Babar Azam's 588 runs matched the all-time season record, and no side will be hunted harder in PSL 12.
Founded in 2015 as one of the five original PSL franchises, with one of the league's largest fan bases.
