Karachi Kings will begin their Pakistan Super League 2023 campaign against Peshawar Zalmi at the National Stadium, Karachi. KK had a forgettable run in the previous season as they could only manage a solitary win and finished as wooden spooners. Thus, they will be determined to turn the tables in the eighth edition of the league.
On the other hand, Peshawar Zalmi had made it to the playoff stages in the last season after winning six out of the 10 games they played and they will be looking to replicate the same kind of performances.
Babar Azam, the Pakistan captain, was traded to Peshawar Zalmi from Karachi Kings and he will lead Zalmi in the ongoing season. Zalmi has players like Rovman Powell, James Neesham, Mohammad Haris, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, and Wahab Riaz in their ranks and they will be crucial players for the team.
Karachi Kings will be led by Imad Wasim and they have players like James Vince, Shoaib Malik, Mohammad Amir, Andrew Tye, and Imran Tahir, who are going to hold the key for them.
Both teams will look to get off to a winning start in the tournament and tick the right boxes in their opening match.
Match Prediction: Peshawar Zalmi might start as favorites against Karachi Kings.
