ISL vs KAR Dream11: Islamabad United will lock horns with Karachi Kings in the 22nd match of the PSL6 on Monday. Islamabad United have been doing nothing wrong in the tournament. After winning their last game against Lahore Qalandars, they have reached the top of the points table. They now have 5 wins to their name in 7 games.
Islamabad posted 152 runs in 20 overs in the last game against Lahore Qalandars. Owing to some sensational bowling from Lahore in the initial half of the innings, the top order fell like a pack of cards. However, Asif Ali then produced a sensational 75-run knock to take the team to a competitive total.
Lahore Qalandars too looked clueless to some disciplined bowling from Islamabad in the second innings. In reply to 152 posted by Islamabad, Lahore Qalandars bundled out for just 124 runs.
After a solid opening partnership between Fakhar Zaman and Sohail Khan, wickets fell in quick succession and the team soon found themselves out of the game. It was an all-around performance from Islamabad’s bowling unit. Muhammad Musa led the way with the ball, picking 3 for 18 in 3 overs. Fawad Ahmed and Shadab Khan picked 2 wickets each as well.
On the other hand, Karachi Kings lost their first game of the second leg at the hands of Multan Sultans. Vital contributions from several batsmen helped Multan reach 176 runs in the first innings. Thisara Perera was the pick of the bowlers for Karachi, picking 2 for 12.
Babar Azam did everything he could to help the team steer the chase. However, lack of support from the other hand led to a 12-run defeat in the end. Babar scored 85 off 63 balls, including 5 fours and 4 sixes. Chadwick Walton too was playing well before he, unfortunately, got run-out for 35 off 23 balls.

ISL vs KAR Dream11 Prediction: Islamabad United are currently sitting at the top of the table with 5 wins in 7 matches. They would look to continue their winning momentum. However, they might not make it 6 wins when they face a star-studded Karachi Kings. The Kings are coming off a defeat but they are certainly capable of a turn-around. They won the title last year and would want to make it two in a row.
