IPL vs PSL Net Worth: The biggest franchise leagues of India and Pakistan are going to come face to face in the year 2026. The 11th season of Pakistan Super League (PSL 11) will start from March 26 and IPL 2026 will start just two days after that. This time the IPL and PSL tournaments will be played at the same time, due to which the viewership of Pakistan Super League in particular may be affected. But do you know how much difference there is in the brand value of these two leagues of India and Pakistan.
IPL vs PSL
First of all, if we talk about Indian Premier League, it is one of the richest sports leagues in the world. It was started in the year 2008. According to a report published in Financial Express, in 2025, the brand value of IPL is 18.5 billion US dollars. This amount is approximately equal to Rs 1.56 lakh crore.
On the other hand, Pakistan’s PSL appears like a beggar in front of it. Pakistan Super League was started in 2016 and its brand value is said to be between US$150-200 million. Even if $200 million is considered, the brand value of PSL will be around Rs 1,840 crore. If these figures are considered as the basis, then IPL is 92.5 times ahead of Pakistan Super League in terms of brand value.
how to earn money
The biggest source of income for franchise leagues like IPL and PSL are broadcasting rights. In the same year, the broadcasting rights of Pakistan Super League were sold to Walee Technologies for about 93 million dollars for 4 years. On the other hand, the broadcasting rights of the Indian Premier League for 2023-27 are with Viacom Digital and Disney Star, which they bought for about Rs 48,390 crore. PSL is far behind in this matter also. Apart from this, the league also earns a good amount from sponsorship, ticket sales and franchise fees.
