Quetta Gladiators will face Islamabad United in the PSL 2022’s 10th encounter. Multan Sultans defeated Quetta Gladiators by 6 runs in a close match, their second tournament loss. They were in the midst of a sprint, but one experienced finisher was missing on the side. They are in the third position in the standings with two points after one win and two losses.
On the other side, Islamabad United started their season with a 9-wicket victory against Peshawar Zalmi before losing by 20 runs to Multan Sultans in a high-scoring game. They were ordinary with the ball, feeding the hitters readily and scoring runs. Shadab Khan delivered a brilliant knock in the run chase on the plus side, but it was ultimately in vain.
Weather
This game should be played in clear conditions with no possibility of rain. Temperatures may range from 19~21°C.
Pitch
The venue’s last few games have been high-scoring affairs. While bowling first after winning the toss is appealing, teams that bat first has a better chance of scoring big and putting pressure on the opposition. Nonetheless, the chasing team has won six of the eight games so far.
