PSL 7: Karachi Kings become first team to lose nine matches in single edition
Previously, this unwanted record was with Quetta Gladiators who had lost eight matches in a single edition
LAHORE: Karachi Kings have created another Pakistan Super League (PSL) record, albeit an unwanted one, on Sunday when they lost to Quetta Gladiators by 23 runs in match 28 of this year's event which was the ninth defeat of the Babar Azam-led side in this year's.
The loss means that Kings have become the first team in history to lose nine matches in a single edition.
Previously, this unwanted record was with Quetta Gladiators who had lost eight matches in a single edition. Gladiators reached the unlikeable feat in the 2021 edition of the PSL. Lahore Qalandars and Multan Sultans had lost seven games each in 2019’s PSL.
Karachi Kings earlier became the first team to lose eight consecutive matches in a single edition of PSL before they got a consolation win against Lahore Qalandars on Friday.
Their losing streak of nine matches is also the longest losing streak for any PSL team.
With just two points in 10 games, Kings are also eliminated from the race to the playoffs of the tournament.
Kings have 43 defeats in seven editions of Pakistan Super League, which is the most number of defeats in PSL history. They are the only team to lose more than 40 matches collectively in all seven editions.
