In a big blow to Karachi Kings, 13 out of 20 players in the squad are currently suffering from food poisoning, reported 24NewsHD TV channel Thursday.
Some players were also moved to a local hospital.
The players are residing in a five-star hotel in Karachi and Kings captain Shan Masood has already complained about the quality of the food.
The players are not allowed to order food from outside the hotel.
International players including vice captain James Vince, Blessing Muzzarbani, Tabraiz Shamsi, Daniel Sams and Kieron Pollard are among those who fell sick.
Daniel Sams and James Vince also didn't feature in Karachi's last match for the same reason.
Despite this, Karachi’s team management is hopeful that they will be able to field a team for today’s match against Quetta Gladiators at the National Bank Stadium.
The event technical committee has also allowed Karachi to include two new foreign players in their squad.
