KK vs PZ Team Previews
Karachi Kings
The Kings currently occupy fifth position on the PSL points table. They have lost three of their last five matches and have effectively been ruled out of contention for a play-off berth. There is still a mathematical chance that they can progress, but it'll certainly require victory over Peshawar.
Kieron Pollard and Shoaib Malik have been the Kings' stanout performers with the bat in the 2024 PSL. The West Indian all-rounder and former Pakistan captain have struck a half-century each. Pollard has 238 runs in seven innings to Malik's 232 in nine.
Hasan Ali and Mir Hamza have been Karachi's most prolific bowlers in this year's tournament. They have shared 23 wickets as one of the best seam pairings among the six teams. Ali has bowled with characteristic pace and aggression, while Hamza's accuracy has been impressive.
Karachi Kings Playing 11
James Vince, Tim Seifert, Shan Masood, Shoaib Malik, Kieron Pollard, Irfan Khan, Anwar Ali, Daniel Sams, Arafat Minhas, Zahid Mahmood, Hasan Ali.
Peshawar Zalmi
Zalmi are in third position on the points table. Their play-off berth has all but been confirmed. Peshawar have collected three wins from their last four PSL matches. They have plenty of momentum and can build on that with another win - this time against the struggling Kings.
Babar Azam has been Peshawar's best batter this season. Not only is he the franchise's top run-scorer in the 2024 PSL, but he is the top run-scorer in the tournament overall with 447 in eight innings. Azam has almost 200 runs more than any Zalmi team-mate. In form, indeed.
Luke Wood has stretched ahead of fellow seamers Arif Yaqoob and Salman Irshad as Peshawar's leading wicket-taker in this year's PSL. He has collected 10 wickets to Yaqoob and Irshad's eight each. Wood is one of the best left-arm seamers on display in Pakistan this month.
Peshawar Zalmi Playing 11
Saim Ayub, Babar Azam, Mohammad Haris, Tom Kohler Cadmore, Haseebullah Khan, Rovman Powell, Aamer Jamal, Luke Wood, Naveen ul Haq, Mehran Mumtaz, Aimal Khan.
KK vs PZ Toss Prediction
The National Stadium in Karachi will be the venue for this match. The last three tosses in PSL cricket at this venue have brought two decisions to bat first.
It's likely the team to win this toss this time will take their cue from that record and choose to bat first as well.

Pitch and Conditions
The last three first-innings totals in PSL matches at this ground have been 189, 166 and 177. This is a relatively high-scoring venue. A first-innings score of around 170-plus can be considered competitive.
Both teams will likely play two specialist spinners. No rain is forecast in Karachi on matchday. We should get a full fixture in.
KK vs PZ Betting Tips
Zalmi have the momentum that Karachi don't. Their batting and bowling resources are also in stronger form than what the Kings have been putting out.
Bet on 1.8 favourites Peshawar Zalmi to beat the 2.04 underdogs Karachi Kings in this match.
Bonus Cricket Bets
Azam's last four PSL innings have included back-to-back half-tons and a century. Look forward to another telling performance from Zalmi's captain.
Ali took a four-wicket haul against the Quetta Gladiators less than a week ago. He can capitalise on conducive conditions in Karachi.
The Kings have a 50 percent chance of winning the toss. Bet on them to do so at their home ground. If they do win the toss, they will probably choose to bat first.
In a T20 World Cup year, Wood continues to push for a recall for England. He has been very consistent for Zalmi lately.
Malik has so much experience and is the Kings' second-highest run-scorer this PSL season. Anticipate another big performance with the bat from him.
