LAH vs PES Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: PSL 2023 Match 15 | LQ vs PZ Dream11 Prediction Today | Lahore Pitch Report
Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore will host match number 15 between Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi as PSL resumes after a one day break. Both sides are on four points in the points table, with Zalmi playing a match more than Qalandars and hence Qalandars (3rd) are placed ahead of Zalmi (4th) because of net run rate.
Qalandars come into this match after a big 63-run win over Gladiators, whereas Zalmi enter the contest after a poor six-wicket loss against Islamabad. The batting departments of both teams are looking in good touch and contributing equally to the team. The bowling department of Qalandars, filled with stars, is the main reason for their success so far. The Zalmi bowlers have also been effective at stages and would look to continue the form.
The two well balanced sides are ready to make, the second game of the day, an epic clash. The battle in the points table is heating up as half of the tournament will be done by the end of this game.
