Islamabad United captain Shadab Khan pledged that his squad would perform better in PSL

RAWALPINDI: 3 March 2023: Islamabad United captain Shadab Khan pledged on Thursday that his squad would perform better in the remaining HBL Pakistan Super League games after acknowledging that the batting meltdown in their most recent game was the product of a fearless approach.
After three victories and two defeats through five games, third-placed United will play fifth-placed Karachi Kings on Friday at the Pindi Cricket Stadium.
Although United's track record at the Pindi Cricket Stadium isn't great, Shadab promised during a pre-game news conference on Thursday that his team would put on a strong display to change that.Leg-spinning all-rounder added, "Because of our bold approach, our batting disintegrated against Lahore Qalandars," in reference to his team's crushing 110-run defeat at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore last Monday.
Shadab emphasised that being captain had little impact on his performances, saying that United had been dominating the PSL for the previous two seasons.
In response to the Kings' subpar PSL-8 performance, he noted they were a major team and knew how to recover from such circumstances. So tomorrow we're going all out against them," he remarked. In a tight 24-run loss to Zalmi, The Kings, the 2020 PSL champions, dropped to fifth place with four points after seven PSL-8 games.
