Karachi Kings Vs Lahore Qalandars 26th Match Prediction

ABOUT THE MATCH

Lahore Qalandars could climb to second if they maintain their winning streak when they take on Karachi Kings and we can expect another win from Lahore. Whereas Karachi is also on a winning track but they lost against Lahore when these both met last time.

The match is going to play at  National Stadium – Karachi, Pakistan on March 12th.
