Karachi Kings, a competitive franchise in the HBL PSL 9 2024 lineup, stands as a prominent contender in the Pakistan Super League. Salman Iqbal, owner of the ARY Media Group, holds the reins of the Karachi Kings franchise. Reflecting the vibrant spirit of Karachi, the franchise finds its namesake in the capital city of Sindh province, the largest city in Pakistan by population. Their home ground in the Pakistan Super League is the National Bank Cricket Arena in Karachi. The ownership rights for this franchise were secured for a staggering sum of 26 million US dollars in December 2015, spanning a tenure of 10 years, making it the most expensive franchise among the initial five in the PSL.

In the fifth season of the league, Karachi Kings clinched their maiden title as champions of the HBL PSL in 2020. Their journey to glory saw them appearing in just one HBL PSL Final out of eight, a triumph they secured. Additionally, they boasted a commendable record of qualifying for the HBL PSL playoffs in six out of eight instances until HBL PSL 8 in 2023. However, recent seasons have posed challenges for Karachi Kings, as they’ve grappled to secure a playoff berth over the past two seasons, managing only four wins in 20 matches.
