#PSL2021: Karachi Kings qualify for the playoffs after beating Quetta Gladiators

Karachi Kings have qualified for the HBL PSL 6 playoffs after registering a 14-run win over Quetta Gladiators on Saturday.

KK successfully defended the 177-run target in match number 29 of the sixth edition of the Pakistan Super League at Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Zayed Cricket stadium.

The Kings got their breakthrough in the last ball of the fifth over, with Mohammad Ilyas dismissing Saim Ayub (19).

Saim Ayub had given an ideal start to the innings as he dispatched Imad Wasim for two sixes before hitting Amir for a boundary straight down the ground.

Unfortunately, Sarfaraz Ahmed’s unbeaten 51-run knock wasn’t enough to make Gladiators victor tonight.
