THE LOWDOWN
LAHORE QALANDARS
- Lahore Qalandars made it two wins on the bounce at the weekend in the 2023 PSL, beating Peshawar Zalmi by 40 runs and making full use of home advantage at the Gaddafi Stadium.
- Captain and superstar pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi once again played a starring role for his side, picking up a five-wicket haul to snuff out any chase of a successful run chase.
ISLAMABAD UNITED
- Although Islamabad United contain the same number of points as Lahore Qalandars, Islamabad currently sit higher in the table due to a superior net-run-rate across their four games played so far.
- Islamabad have won three of their four matches and are off the back of having accrued their first score of over 200 in this year’s PSL, racking up 220/6 batting first against Quetta, which led to them winning by 63 runs.
THE PREDICTION
Both the batting line-ups of each of these two teams are exceedingly strong and in very good form, so the feeling is that this contest will be decided by the respective bowling units. When taking this into account, Lahore Qalandars appear to have the edge with Shaheen such a potent, dangerous force across his four overs in particular, offering that threat of a wicket with every single delivery. Combine that with home advantage and backing a Lahore Qalandars victory looks the smart move to make.
