Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars will face off in Match 26 of the Pakistan Premier League on Saturday evening in Karachi. The Kings have a total of six points from eight games and are fifth, while the Qalandars are at the bottom of the table in sixth place with only one win from eight games! The Karachi Kings have only won one of their last five games, but they have already defeated the Lahore Qalandars in this tournament. The Qalandars will most likely be more difficult to beat than they were before their most recent victory. Lahore Qalandars finally won their first match of the tournament on Thursday, defeating Islamabad United. They’ll head from Rawalpindi to Karachi for this game, hoping to make it two out of two.

With Lahore Qalandars already out of contention for a top-four finish, the Karachi Kings will be desperate to maintain their campaign alive with a victory in front of their devoted fans. We predict a close game, with Rassie van der Dussen and Shaheen Shah Afridi keeping the Qalandars competitive. However, we believe Karachi Kings will come out on top. Considering the team combination, Karachi Kings is expected to win this match.
