 * Symbol possible vote.svg I'm sorry but this article has a ways to go before it meets the criteria for a DYK. It is new enough and free of copyright violations, the hook is interesting, neutral, and short enough. However, the article is not long enough (only 590 characters of readable prose). My bigger concern is that the content of the article is not in the citations given. Neither source mentions the Karachi Kings at all. If you can add some more text, and find some new sources (these don't have to be in English, I think has most of the info you used), then I think it would be good to go.

 * Reply Yes I know article is short but it is expanding day by day and will get a boost on 20 and 21 December when PCB will announce players for team. I have added some more (this and this and this) references that shows clear name of team Karachi Kings. Anjana Larka Talk 06:43, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks. It's much better now, but it's still not long enough for a DYK (DYK check says 590 characters of readable prose). Once it is, then I'll review it again. Ashorocetus (talk &#124; contribs) 14:52, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Now??? Anjana Larka Talk 10:14, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Much better now. It's long enough, and everything else looks good. However, there is some issues with close paraphrasing in lead and in the Franchise History sections (see results from Earwig's copyvio detector). Some rephrasing should fix the problem.

 * I think this was copied from Wikipedia because it is created on 22 December and article is created before this, however I have replaced the wording and it should be approved now Anjana Larka Talk 08:20, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg You know, you're probably right about that (sorry I didn't notice it). Anyway, all the issues are cleared up, this should be good to go. Ashorocetus (talk &#124; contribs) 17:30, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
