THE LOWDOWN
QUETTA GLADIATORS
- Despite a record of one win and two losses so far in the 2022 PSL, Quetta Gladiators can consider themselves unlucky to hold such a record, with both their two defeats extremely close affairs.
- Whilst England limited overs international Jason Roy has arrived in Pakistan, his mandatory three-day quarantine period means that he won’t be able to feature as an overseas player for Quetta in this match.
ISLAMABAD UNITED
- Islamabad United became the latest PSL side to fall at the hands of Multan Sultans last time out, having been bowled out for 197 in a valiant attempt to chase a vast target of 218 to win.
- Captain Shadab Khan led by example in that game, scoring an incredible 91 from just 42 balls and his potency with both bat and ball makes him a critical player for Islamabad, who need him to fire against Quetta.
THE PREDICTION
It will be interesting to see how Islamabad United respond to having suffered their first defeat of the competition and the expectation is that it will be a strong one. Despite losing, they once against accumulated a big score with the bat and Quetta Gladiators may well struggle to match them in comparison. Whilst each boasts a strong bowling unit, the superior strength-in-depth of the Islamabad United batting line-up may wind up the key factor in regards to the outcome of this match, so with that in mind the shrewd move here would be to back an Islamabad United victory.
