Psl winners list: Season‑by‑season champions & finals

A league built on nerve and narrative. A final that rarely lets you breathe. The Pakistan Super League’s champions roll call reads like a crash course in modern T20 strategy: data‑driven match‑ups, hard‑length bowling, fearless powerplay hitting, shrewd middle‑overs squeezing, and a cool finish when everything shakes. From the first swing in the desert to the latest last‑ball heart‑stopper, the PSL winners list tells the story of a tournament that learned, evolved, and came home to packed stands and roaring noise.

Quick fact: most titles belong to Islamabad United with three. Lahore Qalandars own back‑to‑back glory. Multan Sultans have become a finals machine. And Peshawar Zalmi, Quetta Gladiators, and Karachi Kings each carved their singular, signature triumph.

Below is a complete, season‑by‑season psl champions list. It goes beyond names: final scores, margin, venue, Player of the Final, captain, and head coach. The context that matters is here—the little edges you remember long after the fireworks fade.

How each final was won: an expert, season‑by‑season lens

Season 1: Misbah’s calm, Dwayne Smith’s thump

The psl winners list starts with Islamabad United solving a high‑pressure chase in Dubai through Dwayne Smith’s flat‑batted muscle and Misbah‑ul‑Haq’s quietly ruthless calm. The Gladiators posted a proper finals score, backed by an attack that liked hard lengths and fielders who hunted twos. United flipped the script with intent in the first powerplay, Smith giving the chase a body blow, then rode composure through the inevitable middle‑overs squeeze. That night set the PSL’s tone: method beats chaos if you keep hitting the right match‑ups.

Season 2: Lahore’s homecoming and Darren Sammy’s aura

The homecoming final in Lahore turned into a tactical test few sides had experienced. Peshawar Zalmi navigated pre‑final upheavals better, paced a par total on a used surface, and defended with a plan. Darren Sammy was the heartbeat—steady runs at the end, then field placements that dared Quetta’s makeshift batting to find gaps. The Gladiators, dealing with star absences, ran into a wall of pressure they couldn’t clear. Fifty‑plus runs as a margin in a PSL final signals total control; Zalmi earned every clap.

Season 3: Ronchi’s turbocharge

Karachi embraced PSL showtime and Islamabad United obliged with a chase that started like a dragster. Luke Ronchi hit the gas, walloped length before it could grip, and forced Zalmi into defensive fields immediately. There was a wobble, as there almost always is in a PSL chase: a collapse, a hush, a breath held for an over or two. The difference came from United’s depth and habit. They don’t panic easily, and when they do, they still keep a scoring option alive. Result: a second championship, and a reminder that powerplay dominance makes life easier than any late heroics can.

Season 4: Quetta’s redemption arc

Quetta Gladiators had lived two finals the hard way, then played the third like they’d been waiting for that night their whole lives. The batters kept things clean, shot selection mature, and never let the asking rate get silly during the chase. The headline belonged to Mohammad Hasnain. Pace not just as speed but as a plan—shorts that rushed, length balls that arrived half a beat later than expected, seam upright. His Player of the Final award was the perfect emblem. Sarfraz Ahmed marshaled the field with that seen‑it‑all intensity, and Moin Khan’s group finally got the silver they’d chased.

Season 5: Karachi’s catharsis

Karachi Kings, a team that spent early seasons searching for a true identity, landed one on a night that demanded calm. The final offered a tricky target, neither small nor large, dense with tactical traps. Babar Azam read the lane perfectly. He doesn’t just score, he curates a chase, deciding which bowlers get nudged and which get punished. Imad Wasim gave the template from the toss to the bowling changes, and an interim‑led group carried the memory of a late coach in their hearts. The gleam on the trophy looked like closure.

Season 6: Multan’s template, Flower’s fingerprints

Multan Sultans poured out a champion’s total in Abu Dhabi and protected it with intelligence. Sohaib Maqsood played like a man who knew exactly where the gaps would appear, then punished anything too full. Mohammad Rizwan captained with detail—fielders in places that looked odd until a ball went there, bowling changes that made boundary options disappear. Andy Flower’s preparation bled into everything. The PSL often rewards sides that obsess about lengths and angles; Multan’s first title was a masterclass in both.

Season 7: Lahore’s roar at home

Gaddafi Stadium noise isn’t just sound; it’s a weight, a lift, and sometimes an opponent. Lahore Qalandars turned that surge into discipline. Mohammad Hafeez took the final by the scruff, playing an innings that started with calm and ended with audacity, then grabbed wickets to snap Multan’s rhythm. Shaheen Shah Afridi, the captain, never forgets to attack—the most Lahore thing of all. The trophy stayed where it belonged that night, and the league found some of its most emotional images.

Season 8: One run, one breath

The sequel was even tighter. Lahore defended two hundred by the slimmest sliver, a single run that will be retold forever. Shaheen Afridi’s batting cameo flipped momentum late, then his new‑ball overs carved open options. Multan still nearly found a way, because that’s who they are—methodical, relentless. The last ball, a scramble, a desperate run, a clean pick‑up and run‑out, and then bedlam. Back‑to‑back champions don’t happen by luck. Lahore’s bowling identity—wickets up top, choke in the middle, variations at the end—earned it.

Season 9: Islamabad’s last‑ball knife‑edge

The latest final had a familiar PSL shape: a tricky first‑innings total that asked questions, then a chase that had to labor and burst, pause and sprint, sometimes in the same over. Imad Wasim’s spell for Islamabad saved the night before he even batted; five wickets, clever seam presentation, pace off, and a sense for how the surface was maturing. Shadab Khan’s group carried a champion’s trait: refusing to let required rate and scoreboard anxiety stack on top of each other. A last‑ball finish, a two‑wicket margin, and a third star on the crest. Cold hands, hot hearts.

Most titles and finals: the definitive leaderboard

Titles by team

• Islamabad United: 3 titles, a perfect record in finals
• Lahore Qalandars: 2 titles, both consecutive
• Multan Sultans: 1 title, the most recent finalist in three straight seasons
• Peshawar Zalmi: 1 title, frequent finalists
• Quetta Gladiators: 1 title, heartbreaks then redemption
• Karachi Kings: 1 title, a patient build to a perfect night

Finals appearances by team

• Multan Sultans: 4 finals (1 title, 3 runners‑up)
• Peshawar Zalmi: 4 finals (1 title, 3 runners‑up)
• Islamabad United: 3 finals (3 titles)
• Lahore Qalandars: 3 finals (2 titles, 1 runner‑up)

Captains and coaches who cracked the final code

• Misbah‑ul‑Haq and Dean Jones: the original blueprint. Calm, data without drama, and batting orders that knew their roles. Two titles that established a franchise identity and a league standard.
• Darren Sammy and Mohammad Akram: charisma and clarity. A squad free of noise, a defense plan that made even a middling total look mountainous.
• Sarfraz Ahmed and Moin Khan: years of finals burnished into one perfect night. Emotional intelligence meets tactical clarity.
• Imad Wasim and an interim bench led by Wasim Akram: controlled aggression, perfect chase pacing, a unity forged through adversity.
• Mohammad Rizwan and Andy Flower: details, details, details. Multan’s processes remain a league model for preparation.
• Shaheen Shah Afridi and Aqib Javed: brave lines, attacking instincts, a love letter to pace. Two straight trophies with a method that never blinked.
• Shadab Khan and Mike Hesson: flexible batting and bowling roles, micro‑matchups exploited minute by minute, and a last‑ball nerve that defines champions.

Team‑wise finals record and identity

Islamabad United titles

• Titles: 3
• Finals: 3
• Style hallmarks: burst powerplay hitting, smart chase structures, captains who embrace match‑ups and keep calm when wickets clump. United’s three stars tell the same story in different ways: hit hard early, hold shape late, trust the plan.

Lahore Qalandars titles

• Titles: 2 (consecutive)
• Finals: 3
• Style hallmarks: aggression as default, led by left‑arm pace, a willingness to let the game quicken rather than slow. The consecutive trophies grew out of an obsession with wicket‑taking in the powerplay and an all‑phases threat from Shaheen’s leadership group.

Multan Sultans finals record

• Titles: 1
• Finals: 4
• Style hallmarks: structure, repeatability, and an ability to produce finals seasons on the trot. One title confirmed they can finish; three runner‑ups insist they’re always in the fight. In the PSL champions table, Multan rank near the top for consistency, even when the last over went the other way.

Peshawar Zalmi final history

• Titles: 1
• Finals: 4
• Style hallmarks: resilient squads, punchy lower order, and a knack for bringing new match‑winners to the surface. Zalmi’s runners‑up years still felt competitive; the margins in their losses were the story of a few overs, not entire matches.

Quetta Gladiators champion year

• Titles: 1
• Finals: 3
• Style hallmarks: early PSL darlings with a keen eye for underrated picks. Two finals that went missing built the resolve for their title. Quetta’s best nights tie raw pace to sharp, street‑smart batting.

Karachi Kings champion year

• Titles: 1
• Finals: 1
• Style hallmarks: a build‑and‑burst approach to chases, centered around a high‑class anchor. The night they became champions, they tracked the chase like a chase‑bot: slower balls to the off‑side, singles to long‑on, one bad over punished, then a handshake.

The finals formula: how champions are built in PSL

• Powerplay pragmatism over recklessness: Most winning teams defined the first six overs clearly—either by front‑loading intent with batters who accept risk (Ronchi, Smith) or by prioritizing wickets with the ball (Shaheen, Hasnain).
• Middle‑overs mastery: The PSL spin tradition isn’t always about big turn. It’s about pace off, length that robs hitters of leverage, and lines that protect boundaries. Champions frequently used two spinners who could operate at different speeds and windows of the innings.
• Death overs without panic: The league’s finals have a habit of staying alive until the last 18 balls. The best attacks plan that segment in pairs—one over of hard lengths wide of off, one over of yorkers with a third‑man trap. The best batters prepare counters before they even walk out.
• Match‑ups and memory: PSL coaching groups now think in data layers—what a hitter prefers in the first ten balls, where his strike rate falls off, what happens when you show the slower bouncer early. Champions prepare with scout reports that look like dossiers.

Key statistical highlights that shape the PSL winners list

• The champions list skews evenly across franchises, but the outlier is Islamabad United’s perfect finals conversion rate.
• The most prolific finalists in the modern stretch are Multan Sultans, who forced three straight finals results, even when two ended with a sigh.
• Lahore Qalandars’ twin titles were powered by wicket‑taking intent. A final is rarely won by containment alone; Lahore attacked the final like a powerplay at both ends.
• The biggest win by runs belongs to Peshawar Zalmi with a defense so tight the contest ended early. The biggest win by wickets belongs to Quetta’s calm pursuit.
• The narrowest margin—a single run—belongs to a Lahore defense that refused a single and a spike in heart rates.

PSL winners and runners up list: compact recap

Season	Winner	Runner‑up	Margin
Season 1	Islamabad United	Quetta Gladiators	6 wickets
Season 2	Peshawar Zalmi	Quetta Gladiators	58 runs
Season 3	Islamabad United	Peshawar Zalmi	3 wickets
Season 4	Quetta Gladiators	Peshawar Zalmi	8 wickets
Season 5	Karachi Kings	Lahore Qalandars	5 wickets
Season 6	Multan Sultans	Peshawar Zalmi	47 runs
Season 7	Lahore Qalandars	Multan Sultans	42 runs
Season 8	Lahore Qalandars	Multan Sultans	1 run
Season 9	Islamabad United	Multan Sultans	2 wickets

Finals by city: a small geography of champions

• Karachi: a favorite finals destination, and home to several champion coronations. The surface generally offered honest pace with enough grip later to reward pace‑off artisans. Chasing remained viable with proper planning.
• Lahore: electric atmosphere, and a pitch often truer in night games than in afternoon tests. The new ball did just enough to keep batting units cautious early, and the attacking bowling teams were rewarded.
• Dubai: the league’s first cradle. A final that rewarded professional, low‑drama chasing.
• Abu Dhabi: a relocation that produced clarity. The deck sped up under lights, and a side with high batting IQ stood tallest.

Most titles: franchise and leadership markers

• Islamabad United 3 titles: leadership stability and match‑up literacy define the club. Captains who do not flinch, coaches who love roles, batters who understand what a chase wants.
• Lahore Qalandars 2 titles: a template built around pace, supplemented by dynamic lower‑order hitting. Back‑to‑back PSL champions do not happen without a shared brain between captain and coach.
• Captains with multiple titles: Misbah‑ul‑Haq and Shaheen Shah Afridi sit at the top. Their styles differ—Misbah’s low‑pulse poise and Shaheen’s front‑foot aggression—but both embraced decisive calls on difficult nights.

The anatomy of the “PSL Final over”

Some tournaments have a favorite finishing script; the PSL loves a late arm wrestle. Bowling units that stack cutters and back‑of‑the‑hand change‑ups prosper under lights, particularly when the Kookaburra goes soft. Batters who access the square boundaries with sweeps and back‑cuts squeeze more value than straight hits alone. Fielding captains who live a ball ahead—understanding that the second last over can decide the last more than the last itself—usually carry the champagne bucket. The PSL winners list rewards captains who are half fast bowler, half chess player.

Team	Titles	Finals	Runners‑up	Seasons won

Note: Seasons reflect the order of PSL finals only.

Records and curios the broadcast rarely tells

• The PSL final is friendlier to captains who bowl. Afridi and Imad’s finals underline how bowlers see angles that batters sometimes don’t—field placements that bait or bully, seams that make a surface whisper back.
• The tournament’s best finals innings are not always the highest scores. Babar Azam’s chase curation for Karachi and Hafeez’s dual‑skill shut‑down for Lahore are masterclasses in tempo control, not only ball‑striking.
• The PSL’s quality of pace in finals is elite, but the winners frequently thrive on pace‑off or mixed lengths. The slower bouncer and the dipping cutter are finals darlings.

A crisp history of the PSL pathway to the final

The PSL playoffs format privileges consistency and punishment. The top two earn a Qualifier with a built‑in safety net: lose once and still live. The Eliminators offer no comfort, just a sprint through two knockout nights. Champions usually carry the advantage of the top two start, not only for rest but for opponent scouting. The psl final winners list is dotted with teams that solved match‑ups in the Qualifier and then re‑used those learnings on the final night.

All‑time finals MVPs: what their spells and knocks had in common

• Early initiative: Smith and Ronchi turned chases into strolls by shocking the first ten overs.
• Bowling patience: Hasnain and Imad trusted their best balls, even when a boundary stung.
• Game feel: Hafeez and Sammy sensed the beat of the final, when to add gears and when to leave runs on the table for safety.

Tactical vignettes from the great PSL finals

• The Ronchi over: A fast bowler misses length twice in powerplay; the ball disappears over square‑leg and point. Field spreads earlier than planned, and suddenly the middle overs afford singles that kill the bowling plan. Islamabad wrote that playbook first, and others have mimicked it.
• The Sammy shield: Peshawar defended a middling total by tightening the noose around deep mid‑wicket. Boundaries between long‑on and square vanished. The batter had to invent strokes. Only a handful can do that on a used night deck.
• The Hafeez hinge: A final that threatened to drift met a seasoned pro who refused drift. The innings tightened, then expanded. A wicket at the perfect moment followed. Experience matters in finals more than the raw numbers suggest.
• The Shaheen signature: A captain who thinks in wickets, not just containment, is a PSL archetype now. The new ball promises are not loans; in Lahore’s wins, they were down payments on the whole night.

PSL winners list with captains and coaches: extended lookup

Season	Winner	Captain	Coach	Key theme
Season 1	Islamabad United	Misbah‑ul‑Haq	Dean Jones	Calm chase, powerplay aggression
Season 2	Peshawar Zalmi	Darren Sammy	Mohammad Akram	Defensive squeeze, aura leadership
Season 3	Islamabad United	Misbah‑ul‑Haq	Dean Jones	Powerplay turbo, composure under wobble
Season 4	Quetta Gladiators	Sarfraz Ahmed	Moin Khan	Pace‑led lift, mature chase
Season 5	Karachi Kings	Imad Wasim	Wasim Akram (interim)	Chase curation, closure
Season 6	Multan Sultans	Mohammad Rizwan	Andy Flower	Planning, big total, clinical defense
Season 7	Lahore Qalandars	Shaheen Shah Afridi	Aqib Javed	Attacking captaincy, home advantage maximized
Season 8	Lahore Qalandars	Shaheen Shah Afridi	Aqib Javed	One‑run steel, bat‑ball captain’s stamp
Season 9	Islamabad United	Shadab Khan	Mike Hesson	Variations, depth batting, last‑ball nerve

PSL finals results: the marginal gains checklist

• Toss isn’t destiny: Champions have won batting first and chasing. Final wickets often play fairly if you read them correctly.
• Variations are the currency: Back‑of‑the‑hand slower balls and wobble‑seam back length have higher economy in death overs than pure pace.
• Fielding wins a title: Lahore’s one‑run defense and Islamabad’s last‑ball win both needed clean ground fielding more than highlight catches.

A final word from a pitchside notebook

The PSL’s winners list is a timeline of how T20 keeps refining itself. At first, teams won by out‑hitting and out‑hustling. Then came the age of match‑ups, clarity of roles, bowling units built not only on stars but on sequences. And then the phase the league is in now: sides that can reinvent within a game. Lahore’s surge, Islamabad’s repeatability, Multan’s relentless presence—none of it lands without quick learning and brave choices.

The champions’ names are the headline. The margins tell the truth. Six wickets with eight balls to spare because the first four overs were ruthless. Fifty‑plus runs because the captain refused easy singles to the comfortable side. One run because a throw didn’t float and a glove didn’t fumble.

The PSL final is not a stage for caution. It belongs to teams that decide early how the night is going to be played and then enforce that decision, ball after ball. The psl winners list, season by season, is a memorial to that courage and a promise that the next ending will find a new way to surprise.
