The 2022 Kashmir Premier League (also known as 2022 KPL or, for sponsorship reasons, Kingdom Valley KPL 2022) was the second season of the Kashmir Premier League, a cricket league which was established by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) in 2021.
This season saw the expansion of the KPL from 6 teams to 7 teams.[3] After the end of the first edition of the KPL, it was announced that there would be a seventh team added for the 2022 edition.[4] An eighth franchise was also established for Gilgit-Baltistan but the team was removed from the tournament for unknown reasons. The KPL management held talks to hold the playoffs and final of the 2022 KPL in England but were unsuccessful.[5][6] The tournament was originally scheduled to take place from 1 August to 14 August but it was rescheduled out of respect for Muharram.[6] The draft was held on 21 July 2022.[7] Rawalakot Hawks were the defending champions until they were knocked out in the group stage.[8]
