Karachi Kings, Peshawar Zalmi lock horns tonight as PSL8 action moves to Rawalpindi

ISLAMABAD – Star-studded Peshawar Zalmi will take on Karachi Kings in what is said to be a crucial match of the ongoing Pakistan Super League season 8 on Wednesday.

The match will be played at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, which is hosting the first match of this year’s tournament.

Karachi Kings and Peshawar Zalmi will eye to bag today’s game to improve their chances of qualifying for the playoffs. Imad Wasim-led Kings are sitting at the fourth spot with four points in six games, while Babar Azam’s Zalmi is hovering in second last place with four points.

Kings are showing their best in the country’s flagship tournament, as they lost three matches with close margins. The squad regained confidence with a convincing win over Multan Sultans and then they outfoxed Lahore Qalandars by 67 runs.

Zalmi could only win two out of the five games so far and will need to stay in a commanding position in coming matches to advance in the cricket league.
