About Karachi Kings
Karachi Kings carry the biggest home crowd in the league and the weight that comes with it. Their one title arrived in 2020, in an empty-stadium final played months late because of the pandemic, when they beat Lahore Qalandars at home. PSL 11 brought a reset: David Warner returned as captain through the first auction, and Karachi finished sixth on 10 points, missing the playoffs on net run rate in a three-way tie.
Founded in 2015 as one of the five original PSL franchises, representing Pakistan's largest city.
