Pitch Conditions:
National Stadium Karachi
The wicket is expected to be batting-friendly. Bowlers generally get negligible support from it so you can expect scores in the range of 180-200.
Note: In the first match of the PSL, the wicket was slow and spinners were getting good turn so if match will be played on that wicket then the wicket will be slow and low (We will give the final update of the pitch on our telegram channel)
