ISL vs PES Match Preview

Islamabad United will face Peshawar Zalmi in match 13 of the 2024 Pakistan Super League on Monday evening in Lahore. Islamabad United currently has two points from three games, while Peshawar Zalmi has four points from four games. They began the season with a win over the Lahore Qalandars, but have since lost to the Multan Sultans and Quetta Gladiators. Having said that, there is plenty of talent in their squad, and we expect to be competitive once more in this match. Peshawar Zalmi will be full of confidence heading into this game on Monday after winning their first two matches of the tournament on Friday and Sunday. With Babar Azam consistently scoring runs, they should be able to win this match.

Topmost Picks for ISL vs PES Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Islamabad United

• Alex Hales – The experienced English opener had a strike-rate of 233.33 from nine balls when he was dismissed against Quetta Gladiators and we expect him to bat with similar aggression in this clash.
• Shadab Khan – The bowling all-rounder skipper added another two wickets to his tournament tally in Match 8 and he’ll be looking forward to getting the ball in hand again in this fixture.

Top Picks – Peshawar Zalmi

• Babar Azam – The skipper averages 43.91 from 273 T20 innings and has made scores between 31 – 72 across his four innings so far in this year’s PSL.
• Naveen-ul-Haq – The 24 year old right-arm medium fast bowler continues to be expensive in this tournament but is yet to go wicketless!

ISL vs PES Probable Winners:

This appears to be an exciting contest on Monday evening in Lahore, as Islamabad United looks to turn around their recent poor performance. But they’ll have a difficult time doing so against Peshawar Zalmi, who won two close games on Friday and Sunday. We expect a close match, but we believe Peshawar Zalmi will win again. Considering the team combination, Peshawar Zalmi is expected to win this match.
