On February 18, during PSL 2023 Match 6 between the Karachi Kings and the Quetta Gladiators at the National Stadium in Karachi, the Karachi Kings will be attempting to snap their losing streak and record their first victory of the season. This might get interesting in the clash of two unheard-of teams since neither team has yet to add a win to their record.
The Karachi Kings enter this match with a losing record of 2 out of 2. They just lost to Islamabad United. Yet, the entire unit put on a significantly superior batting display, showing how deadly this club may be.
In their opening league match against the Multan Sultans, the Quetta Gladiators had a terrible batting performance and were dismissed for just 110 runs. Yet, with players like Martin Guptill, Jason Roy, and Iftikhar Ahmed on their side, Match 6 may be the team’s chance at atonement.

Quetta Gladiators is the favourite to win this match.
Even though the Karachi Kings will play in their backyard in front of their fans, we believe the Gladiators will win match 6 because, at least on paper, their batting unit is more robust. The Quetta Gladiators will also be counting on their top-order batters to counteract the fast bowling danger of the Kings because the Kings haven’t been able to keep their last overs frugal.
