Islamabad United vs Karachi Kings prediction

Despite both these two franchises having already guaranteed their place in the PSL play-offs, don’t expect any players to be given a rest as the second place in qualifier one has yet to be decided. Karachi Kings are overwhelming favourites to claim it over Islamabad United when considering their vastly superior net-run-rate, but a massive margin of victory in this encounter could swing things Islamabad’s way.

But Karachi are in much better form. They are steadily improving, whilst Islamabad look the weakest they’ve been all tournament long, losing their last four games. The Kings meanwhile, are coming off the back of a three-match winning streak and are expected to make it four as Islamabad perhaps get thrown off their game due to them needing to win by such a vast margin in order to overturn the current net-run-rate deficit.
