Karachi Kings will face Lahore Qalandars in an important match of the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) season nine today at the National Bank Stadium.
Karachi, who will play their last league match on March 11 against Peshawar Zalmi, must win their final two games and hope that either Islamabad United or Quetta Gladiators lose their remaining matches for them to qualify for the playoffs.
However, the path to the playoffs is relatively straightforward for Islamabad and Quetta as they only need one more win to make it to the next stage.
Multan Sultans and Peshawar Zalmi have already booked their place in the playoffs of PSL 9.
It must be noted that defending champions Lahore Qalandars are already out of the race for playoffs.
