Table toppers taking on the bottom-placed team. It looks like an easy pick. Lahore have consistent batters, a deep lineup, and a home advantage.

LAH vs QUE Key Players

Shaheen Shah Afridi

After hobbling off in the World Cup Final, Shaheen Shah Afridi is finally set to make a comeback. He has struggled with injury over the last six months quite a bit and will probably be closer to frustrated than ever as he makes his comeback, hoping his fitness and knee hold through.

Mohammad Nawaz

Mohammad Nawaz has had a good year as an all-rounder in limited overs cricket and is doing a fine job with both bat and ball. His ability in the middle-order and the control he provides with the ball in the middle-overs leaves him as a potential threat to be one of the more impactful players in the tournament.

LAH vs QUE Match Tips

Lahore come in as favorites with the table indicating a clear mismatch in sides.

Match Prediction: Islamabad United Will Win the Match
