Lahore Qalandars have reached the final after beating Multan sultans on Sunday night. While Karachi Kings had also qualified for the finale after beating Multan. Now the two teams will be at each other’s toe. Interestingly, both of the teams have never won PSL before so any who wins will win a title they have been playing for, for the past 5 years. So best of luck.
