The rivalry reignites as Karachi Kings (KK) take on Lahore Qalandars (LQ) in Match 6 of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025 on Tuesday, April 15 at the National Stadium in Karachi. The much-anticipated clash will kick off at 8:30 PM IST.

Karachi Kings are coming into this match riding high after chasing down a mountain of 235 runs against Multan Sultans, thanks to a stunning century from James Vince. They won that one by four wickets and will now be looking to double down and make it two wins on the trot.

Lahore Qalandars, led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, had a dismal start but bounced back with a bang, crushing Quetta Gladiators by 79 runs in Rawalpindi. With confidence back in the camp, they will look to keep the momentum going and finally break the jinx against Karachi.

This rivalry has been one-way traffic for a while now. In 19 encounters, Karachi Kings have the upper hand, winning 13 matches, while Lahore Qalandars have managed just 6 victories. Lahore will be desperate to turn the tide and get one over their arch-rivals.
