Quetta Gladiators are in hunt for a winning streak as they take on Islamabad United in match 8 of Pakistan Super League season 9 at the Gadaffi Stadium in Lahore on Thursday (February 22).
Led by their new captain Rilee Rossouw, a refurbished Quetta Gladiators have impressed in the ongoing PSL 2024 so far with two wins in two matches. Islamabad United, on the other hand, lost their latest match.
Batters have always found the pitch at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore to be favorable. The Gladiators enter this game on a run of victories, but United, under Shadab Khan, are also feeling quite positive following their crushing victory against Lahore Qalandars in the season opener.
The Gladiators had defeated the Babar Azam team (Peshawar Zalmi) by 16 runs and the Lahore Qalandars by five wickets in their last two encounters. However, Islamabad United easily overcame Lahore Qalandars, the reigning champions, by eight wickets. Fans should therefore anticipate a thrilling game between these two clubs.
Khawaja Nafay, a young and promising player, recorded an undefeated 60 runs off just 31 balls. The Caribbean bowling all-rounder, Akeal Hosein took 2/17 with an exceptional economy rate of 4.20. Against Lahore Qalandars, Shadab Khan hit 74 runs with 41 balls still to go without being out. Salman Agha, the second-highest run scorer, amassed an undefeated 64 runs off 31 balls.
In their most recent match, Tymal Mills, a left-arm bowler, claimed two wickets. These guys from Islamabad United might end up being the ones to keep an eye on.
