National T20 Cup: Latest Updates and How to Follow the Action

If you love fast‑paced cricket, the National T20 Cup is the tournament you can’t miss. It brings together Pakistan’s top regional squads, fresh talent, and a few international stars for a month of high‑energy matches. Below you’ll find the current standings, who’s been hitting the biggest shots, and the best ways to catch the games live.

Current Standings and Key Performers

As of this week, the top three teams are Karachi Kings, Lahore Qalandars and Islamabad United. Karachi’s opening batsman has already piled up over 300 runs with a striking 78‑run innings against Peshawar. Lahore’s seam bowlers are stealing wickets early, with a bowler boasting a ten‑wicket haul in just four games.

The tournament also threw an unexpected spotlight on the Afghanistan vs Pakistan T20I match that doubled as a warm‑up for the Asia Cup. Pakistan chased down 184 with a solid 50‑run partnership between Salman Ali Agha and Mohammad Nawaz, while Afghanistan’s middle order collapsed dramatically, giving fans a taste of the pressure-cooker atmosphere you’ll see in the Cup.

Young all‑rounders are emerging as the real game‑changers. Keep an eye on Haris Rauf, who’s delivering lethal pace at the death, and Saifullah Khan, whose aggressive batting has turned a few close games into comfortable wins.

Where to Watch and What to Expect Next

All matches are streamed live on the official cricket board’s website and on major sports platforms like CricLive and Star Sports. If you prefer TV, the weekend fixtures land on the Sports Channel 7 HD slot at 7 pm local time. Social media feeds update instantly with scores, so you never miss a six.

Looking ahead, the next round pits the current leaders against the surprise package of Quetta Gladiators, who have won three of their last four games. Expect more big partnerships, a few nail‑biting finishes, and maybe another upset similar to the AFG vs PAK game.
