Series: Pakistan Super League, 2023
Lahore Qalandars vs Karachi Kings, 30th Match 12th march 2023 Evening seven Thirty Pm
Venue: Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
The Lahore Qalandars will be looking to extend their lead at the number 1 spot on the points table as they take on a battered Karachi Kings team for their last match before the qualifiers begin.
The Qalandars are the favored to win here according to most betting sites. However, the odds being offered are a bit short than what we would have liked. The punters can still look to place some
side bets during the match to maximize their winnings.
The Lahore Qalandars are the defending champions for this season and going by their current form, they are well on track to win it for the second consecutive time. The team has put up a brilliant all-round
performance to win 7 of their 9 matches so far and are at the top of the table. No matter what the outcome of this match will be, the Qalandars will finish in the top-2 teams on the points table and get two
shots at making it to the finals.
Fakhar Zaman seems to be peaking in form just at the right time for the Lahore Qalandars as he scored a brilliant century in their last fixture. With the presence of power hitters like Sam Billings,
Sikandar Raza, and Abdullah Shafique, the Qalandars have a strong batting line-up that is capable of producing big scores at will.
The team also has some quality all-rounders in the form of Rashid Khan, Hussain Talat, and David Weise, who add a lot of depth to the batting. The bowling has been equally good for the Qalandars this season.
Led by speedster Shaheen Afridi, the team has a strong pace attack consisting of full-time seamers Haris Rauf and Zaman Khan.
Rashid Khan has been indomitable during the middle overs, building pressure on the opposition by drying their runs. Overall, the Qalandars have a well-balanced squad and most of their players are in good form.
PITCH AND CONDITIONS
The surface at the Gaddafi Stadium is excellent to bat on thanks to the consistent bounce that the pitch offers. The average first-inning score here is around 180 which can be considered to be a par score.
However, the teams batting first will be hoping to score over 200 here. There is little help for the bowlers here and there is no room for error in terms of line and length.
The weather is expected to remain overcast with temperatures remaining in the mid-20s.
