The 13th match of PSL 9 is starting at Qadaffi Cricket Stadium between Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United.
With their strong batting, Babar Azam should elect to bat first if he wins the toss. Pacer-friendly conditions early on under lights may challenge Peshawar’s batting. A big score is their best route to putting pressure on Islamabad.
Islamabad United has a powerful batting and bowling attack. But at Lahore, Shadab Khan may opt to chase as batting becomes easier in the second innings after dew comes into play. Restricting Peshawar to a below-par total is the key.
