Former England all-rounder Moeen Ali has opted out of IPL 2026, choosing Pakistan Super League's Karachi Kings instead. During IPL 2025 with Kolkata Knight Riders, Ali played six matches but batted only twice, scoring five runs. At this career stage, Ali prioritizes regular batting opportunities. The veteran cricketer, retired from international cricket in 2024, signed with Karachi Kings for PKR 6.4 crore.
