PSL 2026, Match 7: ISU vs PSZ Head-to-Head, pitch report and predicted playing XIs

Islamabad United will take on Peshawar Zalmi in Match 7 of PSL 2026 at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on March 31. The match promises to be a thrilling contest as both teams are coming into this match with different kinds of momentum. Islamabad United will look to bounce back from their previous defeat, while Peshawar Zalmi will look to carry on their winning streak.

Islamabad United had a poor start to their PSL 2026 campaign, losing their opening game to Multan Sultans. The team failed to perform well in both batting and bowling, which proved to be their downfall in the game. With Shadab Khan leading the team, they would look to improve their performance in order to get their campaign off to a winning start. 

Peshawar Zalmi, on the other hand, began their PSL 2026 campaign on a high with a convincing win over Rawalpindi Pindiz in their opening game. The team looked balanced and performed well in their opening match. Captain Babar Azam will once again play a crucial role, along with players like Kusal Mendis and Mohammad Haris, who can make an impact at the top.
