After the loss of an early wicket, Lahore batters did well to give their team a good start. Fakhar and Abdullah played beautifully for their respective fifties. Lahore's middle order struggled again today. Thanks to Wiese and Sikandar Raza, they get to a respectable total. Shaheen Afridi promoting himself up the order is a non-sense decision, especially when you have hitters like Wiese and Sikandar in the batting lineup, and it did backfire, and Lahore lost the momentum. Karachi bowlers did well in the middle overs, but they were a bit expensive in the death over.
Karachi started well, particularly James Vince; he put the pressure back on the Lahore bowling lineup. At the moment, KK are 107/3 in 13 overs, and they need another 71 runs in 7 overs. A couple of wickets here might change the game in Lahore's favour. The chase won't be easy for Karachi from here onward because they will no longer have the services of Pollard. A thriller is loading.
While Karachi Kings chasing this target of 178 veteran Shoaib Malik hit last ball four to Zaman Khan for keeping hopes alive as now they are having 8 points from their 9 games for the play-offs this was really entertaining match between two rivals in PSL where Lahore Qalandars are having worst ever time after playing 8 games they have only 3 points, and they are set for ending at the bottom of the league table after having worst ever performance in presence of the Shaheen and Rauf which is already out of the event with injury.
Vince and Seifert have good opening stand which help their team for having good end of this match and Shoaib Malik complete the job for his team as he hits 27 runs on 17 balls now they have their last game against Peshawar Zalmi which is already in play-offs.
What a thriller match last night, and for Karachi Kings vs Lahore Qalandars rivalry is very great and this rivalry was seen by the crowd last night. In all the matches that Karachi hosts, no one comes to see the match but this is the match with full half Stadium. Maybe, it is also cause that yesterday was Saturday, and due to vacation, people came to see it. However, no doubt that the Karachi Kings or Lahore Qalandars' performances are not good, and this rivalry will never end in PSL.
Karachi Kings won yesterday's match, by the way, Karachi has no one player who is in the current team of T20 or ODI but their performance will always be good against Lahore Qalandars. Zaman Khan must be cursing himself of bowling such a last ball that was hit to the boundary by Sohaib Malik and that tilted the match in Karachi Kings and they won this only because of this four in the last ball.
