Lahore will take on Gladiators to strengthen their position in the
top-two in PSL 2021, while Quetta would look for two points to stay
in the contention.
Lahore
The way Lahore lost the previous game raises the question. After
picking 5 on 20, they allowed United to post 152 and in the chase,
they collapsed after a good start. Faulkner is a surprise package
with 8 scalps and Rashid’s role will also be important.
Quetta
Quetta cannot afford a loss and they need to climb a mountain
now after bagging just two points so far. They were hammered by
Peshawar in the last game and each game is an elimination game
for them. Plessis and Russell suffered injuries so they might be
missing out.
Playing XI

Pitch Report
Abu Dhabi’s track will get slower like we’re seeing after one week.
Chasing would be a tough call and batting first is an ideal option
after winning the toss.
