1st Innings
- Karachi Kings have amassed over 200 runs, making it hard for Islamabad to chase the goal.
- At one point, it appeared that Karachi might be unable to reach this number because they had lost their top-order players despite a strong start.
- On the other hand, Imad Wasim played an important role, scoring an unbeaten 92 runs off 54 balls and forming an outstanding 99-run stand with Irfan Khan for the fifth wicket.
- Wade also contributed significantly to Karachi, surpassing the 200-run milestone. Winning is critical for Karachi, and their batsmen have done well today.

- Imad Wasim batted brilliantly for an unbroken 92 to help them reach 200.
- But when Azam arrived, he destroyed the bowlers. A bombardment with several gunshots in and out of the textbook. He has won the Player of the Match award.
