The Pakistan Super League 2024 is currently up to Match 15, with Karachi Kings and Islamabad United playing on Wednesday night at the National Stadium in Karachi. Islamabad United has lost three of its four tournament matches thus far, while the Kings have won two of their last three matches. On February 28, the match starts at 19:00 local time.
Despite losing their inaugural game, Karachi Kings gained momentum after their recent tight victory. We think the Kings, who are playing in front of their home crowd for the first time this season, will have enough talent to win three straight games.
After winning handily in their opening match of the competition, Islamabad United has since lost to Peshawar Zalmi, Quetta Gladiators, and Multan Sultans. This matchup is going to be difficult, especially with the Kings in Karachi.
Karachi Kings have two wins and one loss, and they are currently ranked third in the rankings. Their net run rate has remained at -0.420. The credit goes to the batters who completed the chase on the final ball in their previous victory against Lahore Qalandars.
Player of the Match went to 36-year-old West Indian all-rounder Kieron Pollard, who recorded his 60th T20 score of 50 or more in the most recent encounter. All-rounder Shoaib Malik has accumulated over 13,200 runs in his T20 career and has a wealth of expertise. He has a strong resume going into this game, having scored between 29 and 53 in the PSL this year.
Mir Hamza, a left-arm spinner, did well in the game. During the win over the Lahore Qalandars, he claimed important wickets, including those of Fakhar Zaman and Jahandad Khan. In the opening game of the 2024 PSL, right-arm medium-fast bowler Hasan Ali failed to pick up a wicket. He has, however, recovered magnificently, collecting five wickets in his last two games.
Karachi Kings Squads
Shan Masood (c), Muhammad Akhlaq (wk), Shoaib Malik, James Vince, Kieron Pollard, Irfan Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Daniel Sams, Tabraiz Shamsi, Hasan Ali, and Mir Hamza.
Having won the first game of the campaign convincingly, Islamabad United fell to the Multan Sultans, Quetta Gladiators, and Peshawar Zalmi. United, who are in desperate need of a turnaround, must win this match.
After smashing seven boundaries and one six in an impressive performance in Match 13, Colin Munro has established himself as a formidable top-order batsman, with a career T20 total of more than 10,700 runs. Azam Khan, the wicketkeeper-batsman, flipped the tables on Monday against Peshawar Zalmi, after having a quiet beginning to the season with the bat, smashing 75 runs from 30 balls.
Shadab Khan has become one of the PSL’s best all-around players this season, putting up consistently strong performances with the bat and the ball. He has an outstanding record, having not lost a wicket in any of the four matches he has played so far. Right-arm speed bowler Naseem Shah has left his mark on the competition with his steady display of brilliance. In the most recent match, Shah claimed the crucial wicket of Rovman Powell. Shah is returning to competitive cricket and getting better every time he plays.
Islamabad United Squads
Shadab Khan (c), Azam Khan (wk), Colin Munro, Agha Salman, Haider Ali, Jordan Cox, Faheem Ashraf, Hunain Shah, Imad Wasim, Naseem Shah, and Runman Raees.
