PSL 2024 Matches 22 and 23: QG vs KK and IU vs LQ

 Quetta will play Karachi, while Islamabad will play Lahore.


Match 22 QGvsKK

On Wednesday, March 6, at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi, the Quetta Gladiators take on the Karachi Kings in Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2024 match 22. The team's goal is to win both games and move closer to securing a postseason berth.

The Quetta Gladiators, led by Rilee Rossouw, lost their most recent PSL 2024 match against Islamabad United handily, but they will be buoyant after defeating the Karachi Kings.

On the other side, the Shan Masood-led Karachi Kings enter the game coming off their third straight defeat, their most recent coming at home by 20 runs against Multan Sultans.

In the rematch, the Quetta Gladiators won the last-over thriller thanks to fifty-two runs from Jason Roy (52 off 31) and Sherfane Rutherford (58* off 31). Akeal Hosein (22* off 17) shared a vital eighty-run partnership with his West Indies teammate.

Gladiators have nine points from six games; two victories are required to guarantee a postseason spot for them. Depending on other outcomes, Rossouw's team might be done after just one victory. Karachi Kings, on the other hand, have only 4 points and must win their final 4 matches.

When the Karachi Kings and Quetta Gladiators square off for the 18th time in the HBL PSL and just the second time at the Rawalpindi site, both teams are looking to win.

Match 23 IUvsLQ

When Islamabad United takes against the reigning champion Lahore Qalandars in Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2024 match 23 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi on Wednesday (March 6), they will aim to go one step closer to securing a postseason berth.

The Shadab Khan-led Islamabad United team enters tonight's game fresh off a 29-run victory against Peshawar Zalmi. This season, they have already defeated Lahore Qalandars.

Rain and a soggy outfield in Rawalpindi caused the winless Lahore Qalandars, led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, to forfeit their most recent match against Peshawar Zalmi. After losing to Multan Sultans by 60 runs in their last game, the defending champions suffered their sixth straight loss.

In the rematch, Islamabad United won the tournament opener at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore by chasing 196 runs with eight wickets and ten balls remaining thanks to unbeaten fifties from Shadab Khan (74* off 41) and Salman Ali Agha (64* off 31).

Islamabad, with seven points from seven games, will need to win every game they have left to guarantee a spot in the playoffs without having to worry about any other outcomes. Depending on other outcomes, Shadab's soldiers might not need more than two victories.

Lahore Qalandars, on the other hand, have only managed one point from seven games and will require a miracle to salvage their title defense. They will have to win the games they still have and pray that Islamabad United loses the ones they still have and Karachi Kings loses three games as well.

This will be the 19th HBL PSL match between Lahore Qalandars and Islamabad United, and only the second time at the Rawalpindi location.

Hero Imad Wasim leads Islamabad to a thrilling two-wicket victory in the PSL final.

Hunain Shah wins with the last ball as Multan falls in yet another thrilling match. Scoreboard  Islamabad United is the team that knows how to win PSL finals, even though Multan Sultans may have the recipe for getting there. For the Sultans, it was deja vu as they watched another PSL final be stolen from them in a low-scoring thriller ending. United's hero was Imad Wasim, who defied time with an incredible all-around effort. He claimed five wickets and was out in the middle when Hunain Shah angled the final delivery behind point to win United's third title. In Karachi today, the drama of the previous year's epic final, which the Sultans lost by a run, was undoubtedly surpassed. At several points during both innings, United looked to have won that match, but never more so than when they got the Sultans down to 127 for 9. However, Iftikhar Ahmed's cameo of an unbeaten 32 off 20 balls lifted the Sultans to 159, a score that they felt they had just about enough manpower to ...

Despite Jamal's flashy displays, all-around Shadab secures a significant victory.

Despite Jamal's flashy displays, all-around Shadab secures a significant victory. Scoreboard For Islamabad United, brothers Naseem and Hunain also excelled, slicing through the Peshawar Zalmi starting lineup. In the Pakistan Super League on Monday, Islamabad United defeated Peshawar Zalmi by 29 runs after stifling Aamer Jamal's lightning-fast half-century.

Then, on the power play, brothers Naseem Shah (1-26) and Hunain Shah (2-25) cut through the Peshawar top order, bringing it down to 18-5.

United overtook Zalmi on net run-rate, moving up to third place in the six-team standings.
