Will Peshawar Zalmi Play Matches on Home Ground?
There’s a big debate about whether Peshawar Zalmi will play matches on their home ground this season. Currently, their matches are scheduled in various cities like Multan, Rawalpindi, Karachi, and Lahore, but not in Peshawar.
Why is this happening?
- Security Concerns: The proximity to Afghanistan makes foreign players hesitant to visit Peshawar.
- Infrastructure Issues: The stadium lacks the necessary facilities to host large crowds safely and needs basic maintenance.
- Player Accommodations: There aren’t good accommodations near the stadium for the players.
The Zalmi administration has raised these issues with the authorities before, but they haven’t been resolved yet. Hopefully, the PCB will address these concerns soon.
Conclusion
Peshawar Zalmi’s PSL 2025 season is off to an exciting start with their first match against the Quetta Gladiators on February 18, 2025, at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. The season holds promise for the Zalmis, who have rebuilt their team after a less impressive last season.
However, the ongoing debate about playing on their home ground remains unresolved. Security concerns, infrastructure issues, and lack of proper player accommodations are the main challenges. Fans and the PCB need to work together to find a solution so that Zalmi can play in front of their home crowd once again.
