Beleaguered Karachi Kings have handed a 175-run target to table-toppers Multan Sultans in match number 23 of the Pakistan Super League’s (PSL) seventh edition at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium.
The Kings posted 174-runs for the loss of six wickets in 20 overs with all-rounder Imad Wasim scoring playing a quick-fire 32 runs not-out knock off just 16 balls after Kings skipper Babar Azam decided to bat first.
Karachi, who are going through a terrible PSL 2022 campaign having lost all the seven matches didn’t have a good start in today’s game either as Babar got out for just two runs to a brilliant delivery from left-arm pacer Rumman Raees.
Qasim Akram and Rohail Nazir were removed when Karachi had scored 118 runs. After that, Imad and Mohammad Nabi forged a crucial 48-run part-nership as Nabi was got out while playing a shot against Dahani.
Nabi scored 21 off 15 balls, while Imad scored 32 runs with the help of one six and five fours to take his team to 174.—AFP
