Preview

KAR vs QUE Dream11 Team: Karachi Kings (KAR) will take on Quetta Gladiators (QUE) in the eighth match of the Pakistan Super League 2025. This match will be played at National Stadium in Karachi. 34 matches will be played throughout the tournament, including the Final. The tournament will be played in a double round-robin format, with each team facing the other teams twice during the league stages.

Quetta Gladiators are third in the table with one win and a loss in two matches. They lost the previous match against Lahore Qalandars by 89 runs. They will be keen to bounce back and put up a better performance in this game.

On the other hand, Karachi Kings are fourth in the table having won the opening match against Multan Sultans by four wickets and lost the previous match. They chased down a huge total of 234 on the back of a 43 ball century from James Vince. This should be a closely fought game.
