Preview :
Lahore Qalandars (LAH) will be facing Peshawar Zalmi (PES) in the 15th match of the Pakistan Super League 2023 at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on February 26. Lahore Qalandars registered a big 63-run win against Quetta Gladiators in their last game. Shai Hope top-scored with 47 off 32 to help the Qalandars scored 198/6 while batting first and then Shaheen Afridi and David Wiese took three wickets each to restrict the Gladiators to just 135/8.
Peshawar Zalmi were beaten by Islamabad United by six wickets in their last game and are now placed in the fourth position with four points from their opening four games. Babar Azam smashed 75* off 58 to post a 156/8 total while batting first but the bowlers struggled as the United easily chased the target in just 14.5 overs.
This is a contest between two evenly poised sides. Qalandars have not got any of their strategies wrong. Their top 3 have been firing consistently and getting their team of to great starts. The bowling has been in control specially during the middle and death overs. Barring their one defeat which came against Karachi Kings by a heavy margin, Qalandars have by far looked like a more balanced side.
On the other hand, Zalmi had their ups and downs this year’s PSL edition. They won the opening game with a narrow margin and suffered a heavy defeat against the top ranked Multan Sultans. However, they made a recovery after their second game and registered a confident looking victory against Quetta. But again, in their 4th game they lost badly to United pushing them further down the points table.
