The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is in full swing, and as the holy month of Ramadan graces us, cricket enthusiasts eagerly await the remaining matches. Let’s dive into the details of the PSL 9 matches during this sacred time.
Confirmed Ramadan Timings
The PSL organizers have finalized the match timings for the ninth season during Ramadan. Starting today, the games will commence at 9:00 PM (PST), with the toss scheduled 30 minutes before the start of each match. This adjustment ensures that fans can enjoy the thrilling cricket action while observing their religious practices during fasting.
The Lunar Connection
The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) predicted that the Ramadan moon would appear on March 10 at 2:00 PM. When the moon is observed the following day, on March 11, it will be over 28 hours old. This age of the moon enhances the likelihood of its visibility on Monday. As the crescent graces the sky, cricket fans will gather around their screens to witness the battle between bat and ball.
Playoff Picture
In addition to the exciting Ramadan schedule, let’s take a quick look at the playoff contenders:

Multan Sultans
Multan Sultans, Peshawar Zalmi, and Islamabad United have also booked their places in the top four. Unfortunately, the Lahore Qalandars and Karachi Kings have been eliminated from contention.
