Amir will be Karachi’s fourth captain in the tournament, with England skipper Eoin Morgan also leading the line in Imad’s absence in the last couple of games.

The news will come as a blow to many Karachi fans as they had been hoping their two frontline spinners will be available for the game.

Karachi have had terrible luck with their skippers in previous editions as well, with former skipper Shoaib Malik once resigning in the middle of a campaign.
