Karachi Kings (KK) doesn’t have a reliable finisher present at the back end of the innings due to which all of their hard work gets ruined. Perhaps they should use Matthew Wade, the wicket-keeper batter as a finisher. The left-handed batter has got a decent record while batting at the No.5 or No.6 position.
Ramiz Raja was seen speaking on his YouTube channel and made some remarks about Wasim Akram. “You can’t do anything while sitting outside. You have to back the players you have selected. You need to analyse things with a cool head. These gestures only create more frustration. Plus, it doesn’t look good in terms of optics, if you can’t control your temper, which is most important in this position, so it is better to be not in public view,” said Ramiz Raja.
Karachi have now lost four of their five games in this season of HBL PSL. Three of these losses have been while chasing and falling short in the last over.
Earlier, Multan had fallen to defending champions Lahore Qalandars in their season opener but have since beaten the remaining four franchises: Quetta Gladiators, Peshawar Zalmi, Islamabad United and Karachi. Multan are currently at the top of the league with eight points in five matches, taking a four-point lead over the second-placed Lahore.
