They finished off as Runners-up for the second consecutive season after losing in the final against Quetta Gladiators.[1][5][2] They finished first after the completion of their group stage matches, winning seven matches from their ten matches.[6]

Kamran Akmal was the team's best batsman with 357 runs from 13 matches.[3] Hasan Ali was the team's best bowler with 25 wickets across 13 matches. He was also the leading wicket-taker of the tournament and hence, won the Maroon Cap and Fazal Mehmood award for best bowler of the season. [4]
