LQ vs QG Team Previews

Lahore Qalandars

Lahore will go into this match in the wake of an eight-wicket defeat to Islamabad United. A relatively quick turnaround between that defeat and this match gives them the opportunity to bounce back quickly. Let's see how the Qalandars might fare this time.

Rassie van der Dussen and Sahibzada Farhan top-scored for Lahoree against Islamabad. Van der Dussen hit 71 not out to Farhan's 57. They typified how international recruits can complement local talent in this tournament - and both players could be here again.

Lahore certainly need more from their bowlers. They were only able to remove two Islamabad batters in the last match. Fast bowler Haris Rauf proved costly and didn't take a wicket, while Shaheen Afridi also proved ineffective with the new ball. The Qalandars can demand quick improvement from this pair and others.

Quetta Gladiators

Quetta will head into this match on the back of victory over Peshawar Zalmi. The victory afforded the Gladiators a promising start to their 2024 campaign, but they need to follow this up with another success against Lahore to be considered genuine, early title contenders for this season's Pakistan Super League title.

Jason Roy and Saud Shakeel were outstanding at the top of the order for the Gladiators in the last match. Roy hit 75 to Shakeel's 74. They shared a a brisk 157-run partnership inside 16 overs. Rilee Rossouw and Sherfane Rutherford added the finishing touches to a winning total in the middle order.

The Gladiators bowlers then delivered on cue. Fast bowler Mohammad Amir opened the bowling alongside spinner Akeal Hosein. The combination worked well, after which Mohammad Hasnain and Mohammad Wasim took over. Abrar Ahmed completed the collective effort with the ball with two wickets. Quetta's bowling resources are looking strong.

LQ vs QG Toss Prediction

Gadaffi Stadium in Lahore will host this match. The first two matches of the tournament here saw two decisions to bowl first at the toss.

It's likely the team to win the toss this time will follow suit and opt to field first, too.

Pitch and Conditions

This ground has yielded first-innings totals of 195 and 206 so far this PSL season. The 195 was not enough and the 206 was ample.

This is a relatively high-scoring ground. A first-innings total of 190-plus can be considered competitive. It's worth playing two specialist slow bowlers here - and open the bowling with one.

Some rain is forecast in Lahore on matchday. This might shorten the fixture, which could suit the team chasing an adjusted target.

LQ vs QG Betting Tips

Quetta are in a significantly better position to win this match than Lahore. The Gladiators' batting and bowling resources are in fine form.

Bet on the Gladiators at odds of 2.18 to beat Lahore, who are priced at 1.68, to win this match. Check our full cricket betting odds.
