The Pakistan Cricket Board made major changes to the structure of the domestic first-class competitions for the 2014–15 season. For the first time in three years, all teams competed in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy, which was split into two divisions – named as the Gold and Silver leagues; the departments had competed in their own President's Trophy for the previous two seasons. There was also a change to the ball, with Pakistan's Gray's of Cambridge replacing Kookaburra as the competition's supplier.

Sui Northern Gas Pipelines (SNGPL) won the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy for second time, defeating National Bank of Pakistan in the final after the match resulted in a draw; SNGPL had been set a nominal target of 208 runs to win late on the final day, but had amassed a 301 run lead in the first innings to secure the title.
