Pakistan Cup

Pakistani cricket competition

The Pakistan Cup is the national domestic List A cricket competition in Pakistan. Played originally as the Pentangular One Day Cup in 2008–09, 2009–10 and 2014–15, the competition was renamed as the Pakistan Cup in 2016 when it also adopted a draft to select squads for the five provincial teams.[1][2] Following a national restructuring of domestic cricket by the Pakistan Cricket Board in 2019, the tournament has been contested by the six regional teams,[3] although the first edition under the new structure, in 2019–20, was not held due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4][5]
