Lahore saw their two-game winning streak come to an end but will have to rebound quickly to stay in the top four. Peshawar may be just the right opponent for their wish, as the Zalmi have been struggling to show a semblance of fight. Lahore could end up winners here.

Peshawar lost 5 of their last 6 matches.
Lahore won 2 of their last 3 matches.
Lahore won 7 of their last 10 completed matches against Peshawar.
Peshawar lost 5 of their last 8 matches played at this venue.

Head to Head

There have been 19 matches between Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi so far. Of these, the Qalandars won eight, while Zalmi won ten, and one match ended in a tie that the Zalmi went on to win via the Super Over.

Last season, these sides played in Lahore, and Peshawar won by eight runs. The other fixture in Rawalpindi was abandoned without a ball being bowled.

Lahore Qalandars Form

Lahore Qalandars are third in the points tally after Tuesday’s match, with four points (W2, L2). They have two points more than the three teams below, all on two points each, while Karachi are two points ahead.

The Qalandars are coming off a 33-run loss to Multan Sultans, which halted their run of consecutive wins. This is their first match of the season at this venue.

Fakhar Zaman (176 runs) has been consistent for the Qalandars with two 50+ scores in four matches. Rishad Hossain (eight wickets) has been their star bowler with two three-wicket hauls already.

Lahore Qalandars Team News

Mohammad Naeem has aggregated just 36 runs in the season and could be under pressure to retain his place.

Peshawar Zalmi Form

Peshawar Zalmi are fourth in the points tally with two points from four matches (W1, L3). They are tied on points with the two teams below but have the best run rate among all three.

The Zalmi could get level on points with the Qalandars by winning this fixture, although the gap in net run rates is too big to perhaps overtake them in the table.

Mohammad Haris (173 runs, SR 178.35) remains their best batter, but the lack of runs from talisman Babar Azam (49 runs, SR 96.07) is a huge concern. Ali Raza (seven wickets) is their best bowler of the season and has 2+ wickets in their last two fixtures.

Peshawar Zalmi Team News

Tom Kohler-Cadmore could be under fire after some underwhelming performances. Max Bryant is waiting in the wings, and so is Najibullah Zadran.

Verdict

Lahore Qalandars v Peshawar Zalmi

Lahore haven’t had a great time in recent years at this venue, but this could be their chance to bounce back with a win. That’s largely due to Peshawar’s poor recent record. I am putting my money on Lahore winning here.
