Last night, during Karachi Kings vs Islamabad United’s clash in National Stadium, Karachi emerged as the lone warrior in a unique boycott movement that has gripped cricket enthusiasts. The reason behind this unexpected standoff? The official snack partner of PSL 9 is none other than KFC, and it seems like Karachiites are taking their stand in support of Palestine quite seriously.
Karachi Sits Out PSL 9
The cricket fever usually brings fans together, but this time, Karachi stands apart, echoing the sentiment of a growing number of individuals who have chosen to boycott the league in solidarity with Palestine. The empty stands in Karachi’s cricket stadiums during PSL matches are a stark contrast to the lively atmosphere expected during the cricketing extravaganza.
While the rest of the cities hosting PSL matches have seen business as usual, Karachiites are sending a powerful message through their absence. It’s a peculiar scenario where cricket lovers are turning into conscientious objectors, making Karachi the epicenter of a unique protest against KFC’s association with the tournament.
