Match Prediction Best Odds
Peshawar Zalmi vs Islamabad United Toss Prediction
National Stadium Karachi is known for being a batsman's paradise. The outfield is quick, which allows for easy run-scoring for the batsmen. Bowlers, especially the fast bowlers, have always found it challenging to bowl here. It is a good venue for the spinners, as the ball occasionally takes sharp turns. The last three games in Karachi have seen the toss winning captain choose to bat first. Our prediction is for both captains to select to bat first if they win the toss ahead of the Qualifier.
Weather Report
The temperature will be around 31 degrees Celsius on the day of the game. There is no risk of rain interrupting the fixture. The skies will be covered with clouds.
