THE LOWDOWN

ISLAMABAD UNITED

  • Islamabad United earned one of the most remarkable victories in Pakistan Super League history as they got the better of Karachi Kings in the most dramatic fashion imaginable, claiming a one-run success to get back to winning ways.
  • After losing bowlers Shadab Khan and Zeeshan Zameer to injuries during the contest, United had to dig deep but looked set for defeat until three wickets in the final over, including two in two to finish the game, ensured they snatched the incredible victory from the jaws of defeat.

PESHAWAR ZALMI

  • Peshawar Zalmi made it back-to-back victories in the PSL thanks to a solid showing against Quetta Gladiators and they will be confident of recording another success as they aim to stay in touch with the teams above them.
  • They come into this in fourth spot but they will need to keep winning in order to challenge for a spot in the top two with the form of Shoaib Malik with the bat crucial to their chances of achieving improving on their winning run.

THE PREDICTION

Islamabad United’s joy from their gutsy win over Karachi Kings last time out could be short-lived as they take on Peshawar Zalmi. Having won their last two, Zalmi are right back in contention to challenge for the title and they will have their eyes set on a third straight win. United will be on a high after their unbelievable fightback at the death against Karachi Kings but Shadab Khan, Zeeshan Zameer, Muhammad Akhlaq and Colin Munro are all struggling with injuries while opener Alex Hales has withdrawn from the tournament because of personal reasons and those setbacks could be too difficult for Islamabad to overcome in this one.
