Peshawar Zalmi vs Quetta Gladiators Predictions

Second-placed Gladiators play third-placed Zalmi battling for the valuable second-placed spot. Both are on nine points, but Zalmi have a game in hand, so a win for Zalmi is vital. Zalmi have won four of their last five completed games, while the Gladiators have lost two of their last three games.

Peshawar Zalmi’s Babar Azam has scored 48, 111* & 64 in his last 4 innings.
Peshawar Zalmi’s Saim Ayub has scored 88, 38 & 46 in his last 4 innings.
Quetta Gladiators’ Jason Roy has scored 24, 37 & 52 in his last 5 innings.
Quetta Gladiators’ Saud Shakeel has scored 40, 24, 24 & 33 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

The Gladiators have won the last two games against Zalmi, but they lost the previous three in a row.

Peshawar Zalmi Form

Zalmi made it four wins from five when they squeaked home against the Sultans by four runs.

Zalmi racked up 204/5 off their 20 overs, Babar Azam smashing 64 off 40 balls, and Saim Ayub hammered five sixes in his 46 off 22 balls.

The Sultans put up a superb chase but fell four runs short in the face of magnificent bowling from Zalmi’s Aamer Jamal (2/36) and Mehran Mumtaz (1/20).

Peshawar Zalmi Team News

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

Quetta Gladiators Form

After a great start to the season, the Gladiators suffered their second loss in three completed games when they lost to the Kings by seven wickets.

The Gladiators were rolled out for 118 after 19.1 overs, Saud Shakeel top-scoring with 33.

Akeal Hosein (1/24) and Abrar Ahmed (1/24) did their best to contain the Kings, but they raced to the win off 15.3 overs.

Quetta Gladiators Team News

There are no injury reports from the Quetta Gladiators squad.

Verdict

Peshawar Zalmi v Quetta Gladiators

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

Jason Roy is a good bet to top score for the Quetta Gladiators.
