A confrontation is anticipated between the Indian Premier League (IPL) and the Pakistan Super League (PSL) following the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) announcement of the PSL 10 schedule on Friday. The tenth season of the tournament is set to commence on April 11, featuring the defending champions, Islamabad United, facing off against the two-time champions, Lahore Qalandars, at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

This six-team tournament will consist of 34 matches, taking place from April 11 to May 18, with Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium designated to host 13 matches, including two Eliminators and the final.

Additionally, this upcoming edition will include an exhibition match scheduled for April 8 in Peshawar, with the participating teams to be announced later.

In contrast, the IPL is scheduled to start on March 22, with the final of its 17th edition set for May 25.

Returning to the PSL schedule, the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium will accommodate 11 matches, including Qualifier 1 on May 13. Both Karachi’s National Bank Stadium and Multan Cricket Stadium will host five matches each. The tournament will also feature three double-header days, with two matches on Saturdays and one on Labour Day, a national holiday.

The Karachi Kings, champions of the league's fifth season, will kick off their campaign on April 12 at home against the previous season's runners-up, Multan Sultans.

The Multan Sultans, who won the sixth season, will compete against Lahore Qalandars on April 22, marking the first HBL PSL X match at Multan Cricket Stadium.

The newly constructed Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore will host the tenth edition of the HBL PSL on April 24, where the home team, Qalandars—winners of the seventh and eighth seasons—will take on Peshawar Zalmi.

Peshawar Zalmi, champions of the HBL PSL in 2017, will play five matches at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, while the Quetta Gladiators, winners of the fourth season, will also compete in five matches at the Gaddafi Stadium.
