Lahore Qalandars Vs Hyderabad Kingsmen LIVE Score, PSL: Haseebullah Looks To Steady Ship After Collapse| LQ 113/3 (13)

Chaos in Lahore Qalandars side as they lose three wickets in no time including their set openers. First Abdullah Shafique departs as he gets run out. Fakhar set off for a run after an LBW appeal, Shafique responded but was unsure of where the ball went and stopped in the middle. The hesitance was enough for him to lose his wicket. Next over Hassan Khan strikes again as Fakhar's slog sweep fails to beat the deep fielder.

Finally the partnership gets broken. Hassan Khan tossed the ball up in the middle, Mohammad Naeem went to clear the long-on fielder but the ball hit the inside half of his bat and sailed to the hands of the long-on fielder. A crucial breakthrough for Hyderabad and they will look to make the opening big.

Some good ball striking from Fakhar Zaman and Mohammad Naeem and Lahore Qalandars are off to a good start in the powerplay. Zaman has been the more aggressive one, scoring 38 runs. Naeem has also found occasional boundaries and the duo made sure they get a steady start losing no wickets in the powerplay. They need to get more than 200 to put up a challenge in this surface.

Mustafizur Rahman’s transition from the IPL to the PSL in 2026 has been one of the most talked-about storylines in franchise cricket, marked by a significant financial hit and geopolitical complexity.

In December 2025, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) acquired Mustafizur for a record INR 9.20 crore (approximately $1.1 million) during the mini-auction, making him the most expensive Bangladeshi player in IPL history. However, on January 3, 2026, the BCCI directed KKR to release him. While no official reason was given, the decision was linked to strained relations between India and Bangladesh and regional security concerns. Following this, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) responded by banning IPL broadcasts in the country.

Shortly after his IPL exit, Mustafizur returned to his former franchise, Lahore Qalandars, as a direct signing for the 2026 season (PSL 11). He features in LQ's playing XI against Hyderabad Kingsmen in the season opener.

Mohammad Naeem and Fakhar Zaman are out on the crease and they are looking to give their side a steady start without losing wickets from the top. Lahore has a good bowling attack and that makes the batters target an insurance score and then go for more. Fakhar and Naeem are aiming for it.
