Quetta Gladiators defeats Karachi Kings by six runs in the sixth game of the Pakistan Super League’s (PSL8) eighth season on Saturday at Karachi’s National Stadium.
Quetta Gladiators defeated Karachi Kings with a spirited total of 169 runs thanks in large part to a strong performance by Martin Guptill. The Karachi Kings have already dropped three straight games this season.
As soon as his opening partner Jason Roy was dismissed for zero, Guptill made 117 off of 67 balls.. Iftikhar Ahmed joined him at the crease and contributed 32 runs to the score. Umar Akmal and Sarfraz Ahmed, among other players, underwhelmed.
Imad Wasim of the Kings got three wickets, and Aamer Yamin took two in an effort to prevent the visitors from setting a lofty goal. On the final over, Yamin did, however, manage to get rid of Guptill.
Kings earlier chose to field first after winning the toss.
After suffering back-to-back defeats to Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United in their first two games, Imad Wasim’s Kings will be attempting to regain the initiative. Peshawar Zalmi, led by Babar Azam, thrashed Karachi Kings in the opening match, and United also outran the Kings in the finale.
