THE PREDICTION
The last time these two teams collided was October 2nd in a match that saw Khyber Pakhtunkhwa comfortably emerge victorious by 55 runs after racking up 202/5 batting first. Balochistan will need to significantly improve with the bat here, but questions must be asked over whether they have the firepower to do so. Much will rely on Haris Sohail batting at number three if they are to accrue a winning score whether it be setting or chasing a target. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa meanwhile, are expected to bat at a fast pace when taking into account a player of Mohammad Rizwan’s quality taking advantage of the fielding restrictions at the top of the order, whilst the experienced Iftikhar Ahmed can take the game away from Balochistan from the middle order with his penchant for boundaries. When comparing these two sides it’s clear that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s batting is a unit is superior in this form of cricket and should prove the decisive factor here in Rizwan’s side claiming victory.
