Venue: National Stadium, Karachi
Pitch Report
A competitive game between the bat and ball beckons at the National Stadium with 160-170 being par at the venue. Although the pacers should get the ball to move around, it should skid on nicely under the lights. With this being the second game of the day, the pitch could slow down as the match progresses, bringing the spinners into play. Wickets in hand will be crucial, with both teams likely to prefer chasing upon winning the toss.
Today’s KAR vs QUE Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Ben Duckett: Ben Duckett couldn't get going in the previous game for Quetta, but the southpaw is one of the better players of spin in this tournament. The Englishman had a good BBL season coming into the PSL and given his range of shots, he is a fine addition to your KAR vs QUE Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Babar Azam: Babar Azam didn't score many runs in his first PSL 2022 game against the Multan Sultans. However, Azam is one of the best players in this format and was the highest runscorer in the PSL last time around. Although he hasn't been in the best of form, Azam's potential and experience should hold him in good stead.
All-rounder
Lewis Gregory: Lewis Gregory is a skilled finisher who can hold his own with his medium pace. Capable of scoring big runs down the order, Gregory should also play a role with the bat. With the conditions of the pitch also suiting his bowling style, Gregory is a handy pick in your KAR vs QUE Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Naseem Shah: Naseem Shah was one of the bright spots in Quetta's defeat to Peshawar Zalmi in their PSL 2022 opener. The young Pakistan pacer is capable of nailing his yorkers in death overs. With Naseem capable of getting the new ball to do a bit as well, he is one to watch out for in this game.
