THE LOWDOWN
PESHAWAR ZALMI
- Peshawar Zalmi gets a second crack at reaching the 2024 Pakistan Super League final after being downed by table-toppers Multan Sultans in the qualifier, dropping them into this second eliminator.
- Once again, their top score individually came from captain Babar Azam, who recorded 46 and if Peshawar are to take that final step, then realistically other batters need to step up and support their skipper.
ISLAMABAD UNITED
- A strong showing in all departments for Islamabad United in the first eliminator knocked out Quetta Gladiators and showed everyone that they are still very much capable of going all the way, even if they have to do it the hard way.
- Batting first, they reached 174/9 against Quetta, before proceeding to bowl them out for 135 to win by 39 runs, Imad Wasim showing all his experience with an excellent 3/12 off his four overs of spin-bowling.
THE PREDICTION
The worry from a Peshawar point of view is whether their batters minus Babar can stand up in be counted in the most intense of environment. Islamabad’s players are on a high following their last knockout victory and with multiple batters contributing across the tournament, sharing the load may just be the key that takes them all the way. Back Islamabad United to cause arguably a surprise and overcome Peshawar to reach the final and a meeting with Multan Sultans.
TIP: ISLAMABAD UNITED TO WIN
