After having a couple of rough seasons in the Pakistan Super League, Karachi Kings (KAR) were expected to get better in 2024. However, the reality seems to be different as they find themselves fifth on the points table after four matches. Consistency has been a big problem for the Shan Masood-led side as they lost the opening game to Multan Sultans but defeated Peshawar Zalmi and Lahore Qalandars in back-to-back matches. However, in the last game against Islamabad United, they suffered a seven-wicket defeat.

They are slated to challenge Quetta Gladiators (QUE) in the upcoming match in the league. The Rilee Rossouw-led side won the opening three games but lost to league leaders Sultans in their last match. However, players like Jason Roy and Saud Shakeel have proved to be a threat so far and will be key for them against Karachi on February 29 at the National Bank Cricket Arena in Karachi.
