Preview :

11.52pmIt is time for Eliminator 2 as we take one final step towards nailing down the second finalist of this seventh edition of the Pakistan Super League. It has been quite an exciting season with plenty of closely fought encounters and this pressure encounter between Lahore Qalandarsand Islamabad Unitedalso promises to be a cracker of a game. These two teams are the ones who have played quite an aggressive brand of cricket in this season. Lahorehave one of the best bowling attacks in the tournament with skipper, Shaheen Afridi leading from the front. They lost Rashid Khan just before the playoffs but are well covered in that aspect of their game with quality resources in both pace and spin departments. However, their batting has faltered in the last few games. Fakhar Zaman has been prolific with the bat but overdependence on the flamboyant left-hander has hurt them badly in the Qualifier. There is no dearth of quality in their ranks but they need to step up and take more responsibility to take their side through. They might well look to bat first and defend the total in this pressure encounter with the kind of quality they have in their bowling department. Islamabad United, on the other hand, are coming into this game with a confidence-boosting win in Eliminator 1 and have momentum on their side now. It has been a tough season for them, as they had to fight without their big players including their skipper, Shadab Khanfor some games because of injuries and other reasons. However, Shadab Khan and some other star players were back in the last game and that showed in the result as they chase down a tricky total in a pressure game. They have tremendous firepower in their batting but it is all about whether they can execute their skills against a quality bowling lineup of Lahore. Islamabad have lost against Lahore on both occasions so far in this season and it remains to be seen how they tackle the Lahore threat this time around. Can they beat Lahore in the game that matters the most and march into the grand finale? Or will Lahore comeback stronger after the loss in the Qualifier to seal their place in the final? Either way, some quality cricket awaits us.
