Karachi Kings vs Lahore Qalandars, 8th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

23:46 Local Time: Lahore lost their last 6 wickets for 51 runs and that sums up the story for them. They are yet to open their account in this edition of Pakistan Super League. On the contrary, Karachi's juggernaut rolls on making it three in three games. Barring Brendon McCullum, none of the batsmen for Lahore got going and the outcome is a 27-run defeat. You could say they were in the hunt slightly when Denesh Ramdin and Agha Salman orchestrated a mini-stand but then couldn't handle the scoreboard pressure and eventually fell apart in the end. Shahid Afridi and Usman Khan were the stars with the ball for Karachi, claiming three wickets apiece. Presentations imminent, stick around. Oops! Spoke too soon. Apparently, the broadcasters have taken off the live feed. So, it's time to pull the curtains down for today. The PSL bandwagon moves to Sharjah next. Do join us back on March 1st, Thursday. Until then, it's a goodbye from all of us here. Cya and goodnight!
