Squad player · Karachi Kings · PSL 11 squad (2026), updated for the road to PSL 12
View the Karachi Kings squad → PSL 2027 fixtures →
Few squads were talked about as much as Karachi Kings before PSL 11, and Haroon Arshad was right in the middle of it as the group closed the league stage in sixth place, collecting 0 points along the way. The Kings missed out in a three-way tie on points, decided by net run rate.
Every PSL champion's story includes a squad player who became a starter by May. The tournament is too long, and the calendar too crowded, for eleven names to carry a franchise through it.
The road here ran through the domestic one-day and T20 circuit in Pakistan, a route that rewards patience as much as talent, and it shows in the way the role is played: the basics are protected under pressure, even when the match demands improvisation.
How David Warner builds an innings decides where this player lands in the order of things: match-ups are hunted aggressively, even at the cost of a settled XI.

Why some lines say PENDING: this guide refuses to estimate career numbers. If the PCB, ESPNcricinfo, Wisden or a checked record list has not published it, the line waits.
Evening games at National Bank Stadium, Karachi have a particular rhythm — heat early, dew late — and Karachi Kings's planning all season bends around it.
A title defence, a rebuild, a point to prove — every franchise carries a label into PSL 12. For Karachi Kings, the label matters less than the first fortnight, when Hyderabad Kingsmen-calibre opposition usually exposes weak combinations. What to watch is how the captain uses this player when the match tightens — those overs and those batting positions tell you the real pecking order.
