The final of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2026 is set to take place at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on May 3, with fans allowed to attend. This decision follows an announcement by Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Mohsin Naqvi, who confirmed that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif approved the presence of spectators. The PSL season had previously been played without fans due to an energy crisis stemming from supply disruptions linked to the West Asia crisis. Naqvi expressed gratitude to the Prime Minister for his support, noting that while austerity measures are in place across Pakistan, the request from franchise owners played a significant role in this decision. Initially, the tournament was reduced to just two venues, Lahore and Karachi, and all matches were held in front of limited audiences, primarily special guests. The PCB has yet to provide details on how tickets will be sold for the final match.
