Lahore Qalandars (Match Odds – 1.90):
Preview:
The Lahore Qalandars, like their opponents, are coming off consecutive victories and currently sit third in the points table.
Lahore Qalandars won their previous match by a thumping 40-run margin against Peshawar Zalmi, thanks to a brilliant all-round performance. Fakhar Zaman continued his excellent form this season, scoring 96 off just 45 deliveries.
Abdullah Shafique and Sam Billings, both of whom were playing their first match of the season, backed him up admirably. Mirza Baig has struggled with consistency, but he has shown flashes of brilliance, and it is only a matter of time before he scores a big inning. Because of all-rounders like David Weise, Sikandar Raza, and Hussain Talat, the team has plenty of batting depth.
Captain Shaheen Afridi bowled a brilliant spell in the previous match, picking up a fifer, and he is now his team’s leading wicket-taker. At the start of the innings, he will be joined by Zaman Khan and Haris Rauf, while Rashid Khan and Sikandar Raza will handle the spin department.

Islamabad United (Match Odds – 1.90):
Preview:
Islamabad United is second in the points table, two points behind Multan Sultans. A win here will propel them to the top of the table due to a higher NRR than the Sultans.
Islamabad United has a strong batting lineup, which has allowed them to post some impressive totals in this tournament. Azam Khan, the wicketkeeper-batsman, is in excellent form and has scored the most runs for his team so far. His brilliant knock of 97 runs in 42 deliveries was instrumental in United’s 63-run win over the Quetta Gladiators in their most recent match.
The team will rely on Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Colin Munro to get things going again, while Rassie van der Dussen’s consistent batting adds a lot of stability to the middle order. Asif Ali struggled in his first two matches but finally got some runs under his belt in the final match, appearing for 42 runs. Hasan Ali has been outstanding in the bowling department, picking up three wickets in two appearances.
Fazalhaq Farooqi and Faheem Ashraf, both capable of picking up quick wickets, will assist him. Spinners Abrar Ahmed and Shadab Khan each took four wickets in the previous game and will be hoping to do so again in this one.
Full Squad:
Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Colin Munro, Rassie van der Dussen, Shadab Khan(c), Azam Khan(w), Asif Ali, Faheem Ashraf, Mubasir Khan, Hasan Ali, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Abrar Ahmed, Tom Curran, Rumman Raees, Paul Stirling, Moeen Ali, Alex Hales, Sohaib Maqsood, Mohammad Wasim Jr, Zeeshan Zameer, Hassan Nawaz
