Peshawar Zalmi vs Quetta Gladiators (8th match of PSL 2021)

  1. Current Performance: Peshawar Zalmi has won 1 out of their two matches in this tournament so far. The bowling of the young pacer Mohammad Imran is a plus for this team. Saqib Mehmood is also bowling well. The left arm pace duo of Wahab Riaz & Irfan need to step up their games a bit. If Mujeeb is not available for, their spin department will be thin.

Quetta Gladiators has lost both their matches in this tournament & looked out of ideas. The likes of Tom Banton, Sarfaraz Azam Khan have still not fired with the bat. Only Gayle is scoring. However he may be unavailable for a few matches. If so, Then Cameron Delport will replace him. They are chopping & changing their bowling department in every match which is not helping them.

Dale Steyn is available for selection in this match. Gayle’s availability is in doubt. If he does not play Cameron Delport may replace him in the playing 11. Delport has an awesome venue record. Pick him if he plays.

  1. Fantasy Team with Possible C/VC Options:

Wicket-keeper- Kamran Akmal, Sarfaraz Ahmed

Batsmen- Gayle, T.Kohler-Cadmore,

All-Rounders- Shoaib Malik, Mohammad Nawaz

Bowlers- Saqib Mehmood, Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Hasnain, Mohammad Imran-I

For the last spot you can go with Tom Banton/ Ben Cutting/ Azam Khan. None of them has good record either in venue or head to head matches.

Small league C/VC Choices- Gayle, Kamran Akmal

Grand league C/VC choices- Wahab Riaz, S.Malik, Mohammad Nawaz, T.Cohler-Cadmore are good choice for C/VC in the grand leagues.

  1. Fantasy Talk:
  • If Cameron Delport plays we must try him in our team & also can make him c/vc of our team.
  • The Peshawar Zalmi pace attack looks formidable on paper. The Quetta batters will have to play good cricket to accumulate their runs. We Must try Peshawar Bowlers as c/vc.
  • Saim Ayub is a youngster batsman who has been given chance in two matches & failed to impress. This may be his day.

Inam-ul-haq is also a punt player for this match.
