The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is at an inflection point. With expansion confirmed for HBL PSL 11, the Pakistan Super League is set to grow from six to eight teams—bringing Faisalabad and Sialkot into sharp focus. The Pakistan Cricket Board has now unveiled the first three qualified bidders for the new franchises, triggering debate not just about money—but about stewardship, legacy, and competence.
110 Crore is the Base Price for Round 1
FKS bought Hybderabad Falcons for 175 Million PKR out of the six city names. The will pay for 10 years.
FKS Group is a diversified conglomerate from Southeast Asia with core interests spanning food and agriculture, infrastructure, and real estate. It is widely recognized for its extensive distribution footprint in Indonesia and has recently entered the sports business spotlight through the Pakistan Super League (PSL) auction, where its affiliate, Kingsmen Group, secured ownership of a new franchise based in Hyderabad. The group holds a strong position in agribusiness—particularly in soybeans—and has steadily broadened its portfolio into property development and logistics via platforms such as FKS Food and Agri and FKS Land. Kingsmen FKS has regularly entered teams in departmental tournaments over the past several years, even bringing in former Pakistan head coach Grant Bradburn for one season. Their growing ambition to secure a presence in the PSL was clear from the way they steadily increased their bids over time.
