At least 24 Pakistani army personnel were killed and more than 100 injured after a suicide vehicle bomb targeted a military shuttle train in quetta, Balochistan, on Sunday. The blast derailed a bogie, sparked a fire and damaged nearby homes and vehicles. The banned Baloch Liberation Army’s Majeed Brigade claimed responsibility, saying army personnel were the intended target.

A powerful explosion targeted a train carrying military personnel near Chaman Phatak railway station in Pakistan's Balochistan province on Sunday, killing at least 24 people and injuring over 50. The blast, which occurred near quetta, also damaged nearby vehicles and buildings. Authorities declared an emergency in quetta hospitals and placed institutions on high alert.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced the team on Monday. Babar Azam was named captain after leading Peshawar Zalmi to the title and performing well with the bat.

Babar Azam captained Peshawar Zalmi to their maiden Pakistan Super League title, defeating Hyderabad Kingsmen by five wickets. Despite a golden duck in the final, Azam concluded the tournament as the leading run-scorer with an impressive 588 runs. Former cricketers congratulated him on this significant captaincy achievement.

Hasan said he feels extra motivation while playing against India and wants to attack their bowlers. He also said he dislikes every bowler in the Indian team.

The Baloch Liberation Army claims to have conducted 27 operations in Balochistan, resulting in 42 Pakistani military personnel killed and one captured. Attacks included IED blasts, ambushes, and raids targeting security forces and pro-government individuals. The group also reported three of its fighters died. This follows a recent deadly attack on a Pakistan Coast Guard vessel.

A bizarre selection mix-up in the Pakistan Super League saw a replacement player feature alongside the one he was meant to replace. quetta Gladiators mistakenly included both Dinesh Chandimal and Bevon Jacobs in their Playing XI due to a late illness to Tom Curran, causing social media outrage.

Babar Azam finally reached a century in the Pakistan Super League 2026. He scored an unbeaten 100 off 52 balls for Peshawar Zalmi against quetta Gladiators. This century ended a long wait for the star batter. He also became the fastest to 12,000 T20 runs. Peshawar Zalmi won the match by 118 runs.

Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer has dismissed comparisons between Pakistan's Babar Azam and Virat Kohli. Jaffer feels Azam has received excessive hype. He suggests this has led to pressure on Azam to perform like Kohli. Jaffer also cited captaincy as a factor in Azam's performance dips. Despite this, Jaffer acknowledges Azam's talent and class as one of Pakistan's top batters.

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam drew social media ire after failing to capitalize on a free hit during a PSL 2026 match. A fan's humorous reaction went viral. Meanwhile, Peshawar Zalmi secured an 8-wicket victory over quetta Gladiators. Babar Azam anchored the chase with an unbeaten 71, guiding his team to a comfortable win.

The clip surfaced after Zalmi’s match in the ongoing 11th edition of the Pakistan Super League and showed a light exchange during a public interaction. "Aaj saari nazar utaar denge," a person is heard saying in the video.

The incident took place in the final over of quetta’s innings. Ali Raza bowled a waist-high no-ball to Usman Tariq on the fourth delivery. On the next ball, which was a free hit, Abrar Ahmed was on strike.

Lahore Qalandars captain Shaheen Shah Afridi displayed visible anger after being dismissed for a duck against quetta Gladiators in the PSL 2026.
