Lahore Qalandars vs Peshawar Zalmi Predictions

The Qalandars season is looking desperate after a heavy loss to the Sultans left them locked to the bottom of the table. Zalmi started with two losses but have won three on the bounce to move up to third on the table.

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.
Lahore Qalandars’ Rassie van der Dussen has scored 54, 26, 104* & 30 in his last 4 innings.
Lahore Qalandars’ Sahibzada Farhan has scored 62, 72* & 31 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

The two teams have each won two of the last five matches between the two sides. They also played out a tie, Zalmi winning the one-over eliminator.

Lahore Qalandars Form

The Qalandars were handed their sixth loss in a row by top-of-the-table Sultans, who beat them by 60 runs.

The Sultans hammered the Qalandars bowlers for 214/4 off their 20 overs. Shaheen Shah Afridi (2/39) was again the pick of the Qalandars bowlers.

The Qalanadars got their chase off to a good start through Sahibzada Farhan (31), Fakhar Zaman (23) and Rassie van der Dussen (30), but there was no support from the middle order as they collapsed to 155 all out off 17 overs.

Lahore Qalandars Team News

The Qalandars need a major improvement with bat and ball if they have any hope of making the playoffs.

Peshawar Zalmi Form

Zalmi saw off a good challenge from Islamabad to pick up their third win in a row.

Zalmi racked up 201/5 off their 20 overs, Babar Azam’s great form continuing with a powerful innings of 111 of 63 balls, with 14 fours and two sixes.

Islamabad fell eight runs short of their target, ending on 193/9 after a devastating bowling performance from Arif Yaqoob (5/27).

Peshawar Zalmi Team News

Peshawar Zalmi are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

Odds will be updated once released.

Verdict

Lahore Qalandars v Peshawar Zalmi

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

Rassie van der Dussen is a good bet to top score for the Lahore Qalandars.
