LAHORE: Karachi Kings have bolstered their squad for the decisive phase of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 11 by bringing in experienced leg-spinner Zahid Mahmood.
The Karachi-based franchise confirmed the development in an official statement, highlighting the veteran spinner’s ability to deliver breakthroughs during the middle overs.
“Mahmood, known for his sharp turn and deceptive googly, has been a part of Kings’ squad in 2024 and 2025 seasons too. With the tournament entering its business end, his ability to provide breakthroughs in the middle overs is expected to be a vital asset for the franchise,” the franchise stated.
The 38-year-old has been a familiar face in the league, having represented multiple teams over the years, including Quetta Gladiators and Islamabad United, alongside his stints with the Kings.
During the PSL 9, he featured in six matches for Karachi, picking up eight wickets, while his overall PSL tally stands at 15 wickets in 15 appearances.
Karachi Kings currently find themselves in a tight mid-table battle, sitting on six points after seven matches.
The Kings are set to face Peshawar Zalmi in their next fixture, scheduled to be played at Gaddafi Stadium, as they look to strengthen their position in the standings.
