Rilee Rossouw Thursday won the toss and Quetta Gladiators are going to bowl first the 16th match of PSL 9 between Karachi Kings and Quetta Gladiators at National Bank Stadium in Karachi.
Quetta have rested Muhammad Amir for the match and have replaced him with Sohail Khan.
Hit by the food poisoning, Karachi Kings went into several changes with their vice captain James Vince returning to the side.
Both the teams look eagerly for a win as they lost their most recent matches to their respective opponents. Quetta lost to Multan Sultans in their last outing while Karachi opened their home-leg season on a disappointing note as Islamabad United inflicted a heavy defeat upon them.
Currently, Quetta are second on the points table with six points after four matches while Karachi are fifth with four points in five matches.
