Lahore Qalandars vs Peshawar Zalmi Predictions

The Qalandars topped the PSL table but have lost three of their last four games, while Zalmi (who finished fourth in the table) have won three of their last five games.

Zalmi’s Babar Azam (480 runs) is 2nd on the PSL runs list.
Zalmi’s Saim Ayub has scored 51, 68, 74, 58 & 23 runs in his last 7 innings.
Qalandars’ Fakhar Zaman has scored 96 & 115 in the PSL this season.
Qalandars’ Sikandar Raza has scored 32*, 23*, 71* & 20 in his last 7 innings.

Head-to-Head

Zalmi have won two of the last three clashes between the sides, their most recent clash seeing Zalmi winning by 35 runs in early March.

Lahore Qalandars Form

The Qalandars followed their 86-run loss to struggling Kings with an 84-run loss to the Sultans in the Qualifier.

The Sultans scored 160/5 off their 20 overs, Haris Rauf (3/34) doing his best to peg the Sultans back.

In response, the Qalandars were skittled for 76 off 14.3 overs, Sam Billings top-scoring with just 19 runs.

Lahore Qalandars Team News

The Qalandars will be desperate not to waste their superb start to the season, but they need their batters to come to the party.

Peshawar Zalmi Form

After beating high-riding Islamabad United by 13 runs in their last group match, Zalmi followed it up in their next match (Eliminator 1) by beating United again, this time by 12 runs.

Zalmi posted a healthy 183/8 off their 20 overs, Babar Azam (64) top-scoring again.

United started superbly before Aamer Jamal (2/36) and Salman Irshad (2/18) hit back. United struggled to 171/6 off their 20 overs.

Peshawar Zalmi Team News

Zalmi are in top form and will be confident of putting the Qalandars under pressure.

Verdict

Lahore Qalandars v Peshawar Zalmi

I am backing Peshawar Zalmi to win. I am also backing Baba Azam to top score for Zalmi.

Fakhar Zaman is a good bet to top score for Lahore Qalandars.
