Islamabad United vs Peshawar Zalmi Predictions

Islamabad suffered three narrow defeats in a row before their luck turned in their last match, beating the Kings by seven wickets. Zalmi started with two losses but have won three on the bounce to move up to third on the table. Both sides picked up a point from the last round of matches after both were abandoned without a ball being bowled.

Peshawar Zalmi’s Babar Azam (330 runs) tops the PSL runs list.
Peshawar Zalmi’s Saim Ayub has scored 88 & 38 in his last 2 innings.
Islamabad United’s Colin Munro has scored 20, 71 & 82 in his last 3 innings.
Islamabad United’s Azam Khan scored 75 off 30 balls in the loss to Zalmi.

Head-to-Head

Zalmi have won the last three matches between the two sides, including last season’s Eliminator 1.

Islamabad United Form

Islamabad bounced back from three losses on the bounce by beating the Kings by seven wickets with nine balls in hand.

The Kings were restricted to 165/5 off their 20 overs. Imad Wasim (1/20) was the pick of the Islamabad bowlers.

Colin Munro (82) and Alex Hales (47) put on 108 runs for the first wicket in under 12 overs to set up the win in the 19th over.
