One thing is for sure, the Lahore Qalandars remained committed with their player development program. The raise of Haris Rauf, M Faizan, Maaz Khan is an example. The way they brought Sohail Akhtar back to system is also a remarkable achievement. #PakistanKeQalandars

Lahore Qalandars finished bottom of the PSL in each of its first three seasons, while the Titans have won the last three Ram Slam events but young #PakistanKeQalandars defied all odds to become the champions of inaugural Abu Dhabi Cup.
