Peshawar Zalmi (Urdu: پشاور زلمی; Pashto: پېښور زلمي; meaning "Peshawar's Youth") are a professional Twenty20 cricket franchise that competes in the Pakistan Super League (PSL). The team is based in Peshawar, the capital city of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and was established in 2015 following the announcement of the inaugural PSL by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). It's home ground is Imran Khan Stadium. The franchise is owned by Javed Afridi, CEO of Haier Pakistan.

Peshawar Zalmi won their first Pakistan Super League title in the 2017 season, defeating Quetta Gladiators in the final. Since then, the team has consistently remained one of the league's strongest performers, qualifying for the playoffs in nearly every edition and reaching the final three times (2017, 2018, and 2021).

The team's home ground is the Imran Khan Cricket Stadium in Peshawar. Babar Azam serves as the current captain, having taken over the leadership ahead of the 2023 season, while former West Indies captain Daren Sammy is the team's head coach.

Kamran Akmal remains the franchise's all-time leading run-scorer, while Wahab Riaz is the leading wicket-taker in the team's history.
