Excitement continues to build around the new teams joining the Pakistan Super League as fresh details about the upcoming franchises surface.
According to recent reports, the proposed name for the new Hyderabad-based team could be Kingsmen Hyderabad, although officials have not yet confirmed the final branding.
Sources say the US-based FKS Group, led by Fawad Sarwar, is reviewing several branding options for its franchise. The name “Kingsmen” has gained prominence because the group also owns the Chicago Kingsmen, raising the possibility of brand alignment across leagues.
The FKS Group secured PSL’s seventh franchise as part of the league’s expansion plans. The Hyderabad team will officially join the competition from PSL 11, marking a major step in the league’s growth.
