In an exhilarating contest at Lahore on April 25, 2025, Quetta Gladiators managed to outlast Karachi Kings by a slim margin of just 5 runs in the 15th match of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025 season. It was a game that kept fans on the edge of their seats till the final ball, as both teams showcased determination, grit, and moments of brilliance.
Match Summary
Venue: Lahore
Result: Quetta Gladiators won by 5 runs
Player of the Match: Abrar Ahmed (Quetta Gladiators) – 1/15
First Innings: Quetta Gladiators Batting Struggle
Put into bat first, Quetta Gladiators faced early setbacks with wickets tumbling quickly. Skipper Saud Shakeel was the first to go, scoring just 6 runs. The Gladiators’ top order couldn’t handle the Karachi Kings’ pace attack, with Finn Allen and Rilee Rossouw falling cheaply.
However, a crucial partnership between Kusal Mendis (36 off 22) and Faheem Ashraf (43 off 27) provided the much-needed momentum. Faheem played a particularly aggressive innings, hammering 4 fours and 3 sixes, keeping the scoreboard ticking at a healthy rate.
Despite some middle-order resistance, Gladiators were bundled out for 142 runs in 19.3 overs, falling just short of batting their full quota of 20 overs. Karachi’s bowlers, especially Hasan Ali and Abbas Afridi, were instrumental in restricting the Gladiators to a modest total.
Second Innings: Karachi Kings’ Chase Falters
Chasing a target of 143, Karachi Kings started on a shaky note. Star opener David Warner was dismissed early for just 4 runs. Nevertheless, Tim Seifert (47 off 26 balls) provided a burst of hope with his aggressive batting, smashing 5 boundaries and 2 sixes at a staggering strike rate of over 180.
James Vince added a steady 30 runs but the middle order collapse proved costly. Wickets fell at regular intervals with Quetta bowlers keeping the pressure alive. Mohammad Wasim, Khurram Shahzad, and Abrar Ahmed bowled tight spells, not allowing the Kings any breathing room.
In the end, despite a spirited unbeaten 24 from Hasan Ali, Karachi Kings fell agonizingly short, managing only 137/8 in their 20 overs.

Turning Point of the Match
The turning point came during Karachi’s innings when Khurram Shahzad and Abrar Ahmed applied the brakes with crucial wickets and miserly overs. Abrar’s 1/15 spell was gold dust on a pitch that offered little to bowlers, and his tight lines frustrated Karachi’s middle order. His economical bowling, complemented by Faheem Ashraf’s batting heroics earlier, paved the way for a narrow but thrilling Gladiators’ victory.
Conclusion
This nerve-wracking encounter reaffirmed why the PSL is considered one of the most competitive T20 leagues globally. Quetta Gladiators, showing great character and fighting spirit, walked away with vital points, keeping their playoff hopes alive. Karachi Kings, on the other hand, will rue their missed opportunities but can take heart from their fighting spirit till the end.
With the league reaching its mid-point, every game is now a battle for survival, and if today’s thriller is anything to go by, fans are in for plenty more drama and excitement!
