12BET Predictions PSL 2021: Karachi Kings vs Islamabad United
Islamabad United will face off against Karachi Kings in the sixth Pakistan Super League match. It should be another high intensity encounter in the PSL. They have been some games at the level of the IPL if not better. With IPL 2021 just round the corner, the PSL is totally living up to expectations.
Karachi Kings:
If compared to their opponents on Wednesday, Karachi Kings celebrated a much more convincing victory. They were good with the cricket bat, as they thrashed the Quetta Gladiators by seven wickets and more than six overs to spare. The bowling attack looked stunning against the star studded Gladiator line-up. They neutralized the likes of Gayle, Banton and Cutting at regular intervals to restrict the Quetta side to a meager 121 run score.
Arshad Iqbal shined with the ball picking three batsman and giving away only 16 runs during his quota. Joe Clarke’s 46 run knock then sealed the game. Like the Islamabad United, Karachi Kings also present an attractive bowling unit.
