The PSL 2026 season saw another bizarre moment as the match ball turned red during a Karachi Kings game due to dye from jerseys, repeating an earlier pink-ball incident. Marnus Labuschagne had said, "What's going on? The ball is red." Despite the controversy, David Warner (63*) and Khushdil Shah (44) led Karachi to a five-wicket win over Lahore Qalandars.
A scripted mascot fight during the toss at a Pakistan Super League match between Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars went viral, with commentator Ramiz Raja providing humorous play-by-play commentary that had captains David Warner and Shaheen Shah Afridi laughing. While the light-hearted moment entertained many, social media critics called the act unnecessary and over-the-top.
Khushdil Shah scored a blistering 44 not out off 14 balls with five sixes to guide Karachi Kings to a five-wicket win over Lahore Qalandars in the PSL. The left-handed batter, who was named Player of the Match, expressed frustration over his exclusion from the Pakistan national team, stating he has scored 700-800 runs at number 5-6 in domestic cricket yet remains overlooked.
Khushdil Shah played a match-winning unbeaten knock of 44 off 14 deliveries, scoring 37 runs in the final 10 balls to guide Karachi Kings to a five-wicket victory over Lahore Qalandars while chasing 200. David Warner anchored the chase with 63*, while Khushdil dispatched Pakistan's premier pacers Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf at the death to keep Karachi's PSL campaign alive.

Teen pacer Ali Raza etched his name in PSL history, becoming the youngest to claim a hat-trick. The 18-year-old achieved the feat for Peshawar Zalmi against Karachi Kings, finishing with 4/41. His spell dismantled Karachi’s lower order, restricting them despite Jason Roy’s 85. The milestone, first for Zalmi this season, highlights Raza’s immense promise and adds his name to an elite list of PSL hat-trick takers.
