The Pakistan Super League 2024 has gotten off to a fantastic start, and this matchup between Islamabad United and Quetta Gladiators seems to be another great one. These two teams were two of the three undefeated teams in the competition going into Wednesday’s games, but that might change when Multan Sultans play Lahore Qalandars in Match 7 to preserve their perfect record.
Although it will take a few more games to see who the best teams in this year’s competition will be, Islamabad United and Quetta Gladiators both appear to be the real deal thus far.
In this match, there’s a lot on the line!
Islamabad United faced Multan Sultans and, despite their unexpected victory over the 2022 and 2023 Champions Lahore Qalandars in Match 1, could not make it two wins from two. They may, however, bring a lot of positives into this game, as they were only defeated by 5 wickets with 1 ball left to play.
Against the Sultans, Jordan Cox showed promise at the plate, and Agha Salman has been an absolute force at number three. They have a really strong batting lineup.
We anticipate that Tymal Mills, Naseem Shah, and Shadab Khan will pose the biggest dangers with the ball.
Islamabad United Squads
Shadab Khan (c), Azam Khan (wk), Alex Hales, Jordan Cox, Faheem Ashraf, Imad Wasim, Naseem Shah, Agha Salman, Ubaid Shah, Colin Munro, Tymal Mills
The Quetta Gladiators have a perfect record with the bat in their hands, having scored 206/5 when they bat first and 188/5 when they chase! Given that Sherfane Rutherford, Jason Roy, Saud Shakeel, and Khawaja Nafay have already made significant contributions, there are plenty of players ready to step up and produce with the willow. Furthermore, they still have the seasoned captain Rilee Rossouw, who is eager to record his first significant victory in the position!
They believe they have the best bowling assault in the tournament when they have the ball, and they will be hoping to demonstrate that once more in this match.

Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
We have witnessed two out of three skippers select to bowl first at this site, despite the fact that the tournament is still early. We anticipate the same thing in this game and propose that a captain will choose to bowl first on Thursday after the toss.
As the temperature drops from 19 to 15 degrees throughout this match, it won’t be the warmest game of the competition. Pakistan has traditionally struggled with humidity, and this game won’t be any different, especially in the second innings.
The bowlers have to put in a lot of effort to get wickets at the Gaddafi Stadium, but runs are constantly scored there. The top bowlers frequently have to give up runs in order to get rid of hitters, hence we predict a par score in this game to be close to 200.
In their last 5 matches, Islamabad United won four of them and Quetta Gladiators won just one.
