Yeah, Quetta Gladiators have won their last 5 matches. The team is in great form. But we don't know how the team will play after the break. Moreover, Islamabad United won the last match against Karachi Kings. You might be thinking that Karachi team was unbeaten in their last three matches. Even then, Islamabad United won this match by a huge margin of 79 runs. Islamabad is back on track. But if they cannot continue this performance, they will not be able to win. But since the performance of Pakistani players is very erratic, it is difficult to make predictions about PSL matches.
It seems that Quetta Gladiators are well on target to win this first qualifier match and eventually move directly to the finals of this year's PSL. If that is the case, then all the credit will go to their batsmen. How well they have batted today and didn't let any pressure on them.
I was expecting Rilee Rossouw or Saud Shakeel to play a major innings, but the top order failed in this important match. However, the middle order helped them reach over a 200+ score. A really amazing innings by Dinesh Chandimal who made 48 runs and also Faheem Ashraf 45 runs in only 23 balls made the game back in favour of Quetta Gladiators.
