Colin Munro to score Over 22.5 runs
Colin Munro has been one of the most consistent batsmen this season. He has an average of 73.50 in his 3 outings and has scored at least 23 runs in each of the 3 games.
Total wickets Over 12.5
The pitch at the National Stadium does offer the bowlers opportunities to pick up wickets if they bowl a good line and length. 3 of the last 4 matches played at this venue have seen 13 or more wickets. As both teams have some good bowlers, we are likely to see quite a few wickets fall in this match as well.
Islamabad United will look to continue its unbeaten run in the ongoing Pakistan Super League as it travels to Karachi this weekend. They will face off against the Karachi Kings at National Stadium on Sunday.

This match can be watched live on the FanCode App and Sony Sports Network.
The Karachi Kings have been a bit inconsistent this season but have done enough to win two of the 3 matches they have played. As a result, the team is currently placed 3rd on the points table.
Karachi Kings will depend on Tim Seifert and David Warner to give them a strong start in this match. Both of them are known for their explosive strokeplay and if they get going, the Kings could post a big total during the Powerplay. James Vince has been a solid performer in the middle order and is second on the list of top run-scorers. However, the batsmen lower down have been rather inconsistent.
Mohammad Nabi, Mohammad Raizullah, and Irfan Khan have all struggled to get going.
Coming to the bowling, Hasan Ali is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 8 wickets. Mir Hamza and Abbas Afridi will join him in the pace attack. The spin department will be led by Mohammad Nabi and Khushdil Shah.

Islamabad United seems to be continuing its excellent form from the last season. The team has won 3 matches on the bounce and is sitting at the top of the points table with the best NRR among all teams.
Sahibzada Farhan has been in red-hot form at the top of the order, scoring a century and a half-century in his 3 innings, and is the leading run-scorer of the tournament.
He will be joined by Andries Gous as his opening partner. The latter has struggled against the new ball and has managed only single-digit scores in his 3 outings. In the middle order, Colin Munro has played so far and will have the support of Azam Khan and Haider Ali.
Islamabad’s biggest strength is the presence of some excellent all-rounders. Imad Wasim, Jason Holder, and Shadab Khan are all excellent bowlers and add depth to the batting as well. Holder is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament with 9 wickets while Shadab and Wasim have picked up 6 wickets each.
The two frontline seamers, Naseem Shah and Riley Meredith have struggled a bit but it is just a matter of time before they start going.

It has been an even split when it comes to winning matches at the National Stadium. Half of the last 10 matches played here were won while batting first, while the other half were won while chasing. In 7 of those matches, the skipper opted to bat first after winning the toss and we are expecting that trend to continue.
The National Stadium has already seen some high-scoring matches and we are expecting another batting track. The flat and hard surface offers excellent bounce allowing the batsmen to play their shots freely. The bowlers are likely to have a tough time in the middle. However, there are a few rough patches on the pitch and if the bowlers hit the right line and length, they can get some movement. Also, the pitch could be a bit two-paced at times. The weather will remain warm with temperatures of around 30 degrees.
We are backing Islamabad United to win this match. They have been clinical in their performance this season, and are doing well in all departments. The bowlers have done an excellent job so far and the team boasts of one of the strongest attacks in the league. The Karachi Kings are no pushovers but they may find it difficult to win against such a strong opposition.
KK vs IU win percentage stands at 53% in favor of IU.
