Match Prediction
Islamabad United have a destructive top order in the form of Paul Stirling and Alex Hales. Shadab Khan has also proved very handy with the bat so far in this competition. They also possess a useful pace attack in the form of Mohammad Wasim Jr and Shadab Khan. Karachi Kings also have a prolific top order including Babar Azam and Sharjheel Khan, however, they lack a batter who can utilise the slog overs. The bowling attack is slightly weaker than Islamabad United. You need to have a useful spinner on such a Karachi pitch where the ball grips and turns.
Prediction: Islamabad United to win.
Pitch report:
The pitch at Karachi has plenty of runs on offer, the ball comes on to the bat very nicely. The spinners will also enjoy bowling here.
