KAR vs LAH Dream11 Team Prediction, Probable Playing XI, and Fantasy Cricket Tips for today match.
Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars will play in the 27th match of the Pakistan Super League 2021 at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi.
Karachi Kings:
Karachi Kings are having a tough time towards the end of the season as they have won only three out of the eight matches and are currently at the 5th position on the points table. The batsmen performed terribly in the last game, and as a result, they lost the game by six wickets.
Sharjeel Khan gave a decent start in the last match but is yet to play a big inning in the previous game. After so many brilliant performances, Babar Azam got out for a duck in the last match. Martin Guptill has been in inferior form so far in this season.
After a brilliant fifty, Najibullah batted very slow in the last match, and Imad Wasim has struggled a lot this season. Chadwick Walton has been doing a decent job in middle-order but got out for a duck in the last match. Abbas Afridi scored some quick runs in the previous game and helped the team cross the 100 runs mark.
The bowling department has not been able to complement their batting unit. Not even one bowler has managed to pick up wickets consistently. Skipper Imad managed to pick up two wickets for just two runs. Aamer Yamin and Noor Ahmed managed to pick up one wicket each.
Karachi Kings need to win their remaining two matches to ensure a spot in the playoffs.
Lahore Qalandars:
Qalandars, looking so strong, has lost two consecutive matches and is currently at the 3rd position on the points table with 10 points. They lost the last game by 18 runs.
Both openers Fakhar Zaman and Sohail Akthar, haven’t been able to give an excellent start to the Abu Dhabi leg. At No.3, Zeeshan Ashraf is yet to prove himself.
The two strong pillars in the middle-order, Mohammad Hafeez and Ben Dunk, have also looked out of form from the last few matches. However, Tim David has done the role of finisher perfectly so far. Rashid Khan and James Faulkner have also scored whenever they have got a chance.
The bowling department has been performing well compared to their batting unit, and James Faulkner has been their most consistent wicket-taker. Shaheen has also performed well but went wicketless in the last match. Hafeez and Rashid Khan managed to pick up one wicket each in the previous game.
Lahore Qalandars need to win at least one of the two matches to ensure a spot in the playoffs.
