Islamabad United vs Peshawar Zalmi Team Preview

Islamabad United

Islamabad United’s roster has a ton of depth, but we anticipate that they will play their strongest Eleven in this game. They will be incredibly challenging to defeat if they perform at their peak.

Before their last group stage encounter against Peshawar Zalmi, Mubasir Khan was replaced by Hassan Nawaz, making one change to the lineup. Rahmanullah Gurbaz assumed the position of wicketkeeper but fell in the batting order.

Peshawar Zalmi

Without several of their star players, Peshawar Zalmi defeated Islamabad United in a crucial victory last weekend. They will be very confident going into this playoff game.

Prior to their final group stage match against Islamabad United on Sunday, Peshawar Zalmi made six changes. Due to illness, Tom Kohler-Cadmore took over as captain in place of Babar Azam. Azam is anticipated to return for this important game, though.

Because no score can be regarded as safe on this wicket and because bowlers would find it difficult to bowl with the dew in the second innings, chasing is the best strategy.

During the game, we expect humid conditions and weather delays.

Lahore has a good batting wicket, therefore it wouldn’t be surprising to see both teams get over 200 runs.
