Preview
Table topper Lahore Qalandars will take on Quetta Gladiators in the 18th match of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2023. The defending champions have lost only one of the five matches they have played so far. Their solitary loss has come against Karachi Kings. Meanwhile, Quetta Gladiators are reeling at the bottom of the points table with one win in five games. Interestingly, the Gladiators’ only win has come against Karachi Kings.
Nevertheless, it is going to be a tough task for Sarfaraz Ahmed and Co. to see off Shaheen Afridi’s Qalandars. Let’s look at the prediction for different events in the game based on numbers.
1. Toss Prediction
Lahore Qalandars are expected to win the toss on Thursday as they have won their last two tosses while the Gladiators have lost one out of the last two.
2. Win Possibility
Lahore Qalandars are a clear favourite to win the game as they look like a better team by a fair distance. The Qalandars have already defeated Quetta when the two teams met last time in PSL 2023. Also, the Shaheen Afridi-led team has registered dominating wins in almost all their matches. So, the defending champions are predicted to win the match on Thursday too.
3. Powerplay Score and First inning total
The pitch at Gaddafi Stadium suits batters as the ball comes onto the bat nicely. So, the powerplay score is expected to be around 45-50 while the first-inning total is expected to be something around 165-170.
