The captain of the Karachi Kings (KK), Imad Wasim has expressed his wish to play the final against the Lahore Qalandars (LQ). As the fifth edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL 2020) is to wind up its remaining matches from 14th-17th November, the Kings are scheduled to play the qualifier round against the Multan Sultans (MS).
According to the criteria, if the Imad-led team will win, they will be directed to the finals where they will face either of the three teams. However, the skipper in blue-red is looking to play the final against the Sohail Akhtar team as Lahore vs Karachi is always known to get high ratings with the match looking more like India and Pakistan.

“The match between Karachi and Lahore is always big and if we clash in the final, so it would be the icing on the cake,” said Imad.
“But you can’t predict as the other two teams Multan Sultans and Peshawar Zalmi are equally strong to play the final but it would be fun if Karachi takes on Lahore in our home ground,” he added.
Missing Dean Jones, who was elected as Kings coach last year, Imad added that he had spent one and a half months with him and has found him one of the best coaches.
“I only spend one and a half months with Deano and he was one of the best coaches. He had vast knowledge and all my team members second this,” he added.
“We’ll miss him and will play according to his style. Me and Wasim Akram have also decided to play the same way and pay tribute,” he maintained.
