The Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2026 continues with Karachi Kings facing Quetta Gladiators in the second match, scheduled at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Friday evening without a crowd.
Quetta Gladiators were finalists in PSL 2025 and narrowly missed claiming a second title after posting a 202-run target, which Lahore Qalandars chased with Sikandar Raza’s late heroics.
Karachi Kings qualified for last season’s playoffs but failed to reach the final, and their squad has strengthened with Australian leg-spinner Adam Zampa and England all-rounder Moeen Ali.
The two sides have met in 20 previous PSL encounters, with Gladiators holding a significant edge, winning 13 games compared to seven victories secured by Karachi Kings over the years.
Quetta Gladiators will rely on their batting firepower from Khawaja Nafay and Rilee Rossouw, supported by spin bowling led by mystery spinner Usman Tariq and leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed.
The clash promises high intensity as both teams aim for early season wins, with players targeting personal milestones while adjusting to the unique conditions of empty stadium matches.
