Faisalabad Cricket Team is a Pakistani first-class cricket team representing Faisalabad, Punjab. The team's home ground is Iqbal Stadium, Faisalabad. They participate in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy. It was refounded in the 2023/24 season after a revamp of the domestic structure.[1][2]

History

Before 2023

Its limited overs team was called Faisalabad Wolves. Kit colours were white for first-class cricket matches and green for one-day and 20/20 competitions. In April 2017, they regained their first-class status after beating Multan and as a result played in the 2017–18 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy tournament.

Since 2023

In 2023, the Faisalabad cricket team was refounded as part of the restructuring of the Pakistani domestic system.[1][2]
