Match 10 of PSL 2025 will take place on April 20, 2025, as Karachi Kings (KAR) face off against Islamabad United (ISL) at the National Stadium in Karachi. The match is sure to bring excitement and energy, in part due to the rivalry between the two teams and their strong head-to-head history. Both teams also have strong batting lineups and good bowling options, but the pitch in Karachi has always been group-friendly, so they can take in this high-scoring match-up.

Head-to-Head

• Total Matches: 21
• Islamabad United Wins: 16
• Karachi Kings Wins: 6
• Tied/Super Over: 0
• No Result: 0

Islamabad United holds the edge in their head-to-head meetings with 14 wins and 6 wins for Karachi in 20 games, but the recent resurgence of Karachi makes this match hard to call. The National Stadium has shallow pitches and short boundaries, which offer good favor for batting and the prospect of a run-fest.
