KAR vs ISL Dream11 Prediction, Dream11 Playing XI, Today Match 25, PSL 2026

Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for match 25 of the PSL 2026 between KAR vs ISL to be played in Karachi.

After a brilliant start to the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2026, Karachi Kings seem to have lost their way. The injury to captain David Warner has disrupted the combination, and they have suffered two back-to-back defeats.

They are scheduled to face the three-time champion, Islamabad United, on Thursday. This contest will begin at 7:30 PM IST at National Stadium. The United are also coming off a defeat, in the absence of captain Shadab Khan.

There is an uncertainty over the participation of Warner and Shadab, so both sides will be without their captains. Two points at this stage are very crucial because the tournament is heading towards the business end.

KAR vs ISL: Pitch Report

National Stadium offers a balanced wicket. It has movement for the fast bowlers, whereas spinners get more purchase out of the wicket. The ball grips here in the lateral stages of the game.

This will be the second consecutive game at this venue, so the wicket might get slow. That will make the shot-making a little challenging for the batters.

KAR vs ISL: Dream11 Prediction – Who Will Win?

Islamabad United have won three matches, but without Shadab, their balance looks a little dull. Already, they were struggling with the pace unit, and without Shadab, their spin unit looks a little weak. Karachi Kings also have a few problems, but they are more settled as a unit. Hence, we back Karachi Kings to win this game.
