PSL 2024: Babar & Shadab face off in a crucial clash
In the 20th match of the ongoing Pakistan Super League, Islamabad United will square off against Peshawar Zalmi on Monday at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi. It’s going to be an exhilarating showdown with Babar Azam and Shadab Khan set to cross the paths.
Peshawar Zalmi, under the leadership of the charismatic Babar Azam, have shown a great rhythm with three victories from the six games they have played. They boast an explosive lineup with the likes of Rovman Powell, Asif Ali and Mohammad Haris who are capable of turning the game into their favour.
Islamabad United, Led by Shadab Khan, on the other hand, have been Shilly-shallied in their performance with two victories out of their six matches. They have a balanced team with the availability of Alex Hales, Colin Munro, Agha Salman and Azam Khan. Heading into this game, they will need to be up to the mark to secure a much-needed win. Islamabad United are on the fourth spot in the points table with 5 points and the positive NRR of +0.108.
Both teams will enter this game on the back of no action in their last games. Peshawar Zalmi’s last game against Lahore Qalandars was abandoned without toss due to relentless rainfall. So was the case with Islamabad United whose last match against Quetta Gladiators was called off without toss.
Peshawar Zalmi Probable XI: Babar Azam (c), Saim Ayub, Mohammad Haris (wk), Haseebullah Khan, Rovman Powell, Asif Ali, Paul Walter, Luke Wood, Naveen-ul-Haq, Arif Yaqoob, Salman Irshad
Islamabad United Probable XI: Alex Hales, Colin Munro, Agha Salman, Shadab Khan (c), Azam Khan (wk), Jordan Cox, Imad Wasim, Faheem Ashraf, Naseem Shah, Hunain Shah, Rumman Raees
