QUE vs LAH Match Preview

The Pakistan Super League 2025 has been off to a good start. We've had high-scoring games. The Quetta Gladiators will face the Lahore Qalandars in the fourth game of the season, and they are looking to improve their total points. The Gladiators won convincingly against the Peshawar Zalmi. The Lahore Qalandars are going to come under pressure following their defeat against Islamabad United. The Lahore Qalandars will definitely be under pressure in this game, as the team appears to have carried over its poor form from the previous season. Their batsmen appeared rusty in the previous game and needed a comeback to win. The Gladiators' batsmen are in good form, and they will draw confidence from their recent victory.

QUE vs LAH Probable Winners:

Lahore Qalandars struggled in their last game. The batting order went into an outer layer and never expressed itself. To win this game, the team's batting lineup must play aggressively. The Quetta Gladiators have batting depth, and their top order is in good form. Based on their current form, we're expecting the Gladiators to become favorites. Considering the team combination, Quetta Gladiators is expected to win this match.

Both QUE and LAH will be looking to start the tournament off on the right note and gain momentum in the competition.

Weather and Pitch Report 

The weather in Rawalpindi on April 13, 2025, is predicted to be cold and sunny with a comfortable 18-22 °C at night, low humidity, and less rain chance in the forecast, which means we are set for a full match. The pitch at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium will also be supporting batting; the surface will even bounce, making it easy to score high totals, but openers may struggle with the early swing that pacers like Amir and Afridi will get off the wicket. We should expect a par score of 170 to 190.

Match Preview

Quetta Gladiators enter with confidence, aiming to unleash Finn Allen’s explosiveness and Rilee Rossouw’s finishing alongside Mohammad Amir’s new-ball threat to rattle LAH. Lahore Qalandars, powered by Shaheen Afridi’s leadership and Fakhar Zaman’s strokeplay, will look to dominate with Haris Rauf’s pace and Sikandar Raza’s all-round flair. With the pitch threatening to yield runs but giving bowlers early assistance, QUE's top order will encounter LAH's aggressive pacers, and LAH's middle order may face a test from QUE's Akeal Hosein. A high-energy encounter with powerplay pyrotechnics and death-over theatrics will take over Rawalpindi.

QUE vs LAH Match Preview

Match 28 of the 2024 Pakistan Premier League pits the Lahore Qalandars against the Quetta Gladiators. The Qalandars have won one and lost seven of their nine games thus far in the tournament. The Gladiators are in fourth place with two games left. Lahore Qalandars have had a very disappointing tournament, with only one match abandoned without a ball being bowled and a 17-run victory over Islamabad United providing games in which they have not lost. This appears to be yet another fixture that they will struggle with. Quetta Gladiators have had a very poor second half of the group stage, with their last win coming in Match 16 against Karachi Kings. However, they defeated Lahore Qalandars in a head-to-head last month.

Gladiators are going into this game after taking a loss in their last match against Lahore Qalandars and they are not looking too good at the moment. Lahore Qalandars also had to take a loss in their outing against Karachi Kings.

Topmost Picks for QUE vs LAH Dream11 Prediction, 10th Match:

Top Picks – Quetta Gladiators

• Martin Guptill- Coming off a fresh century in this previous game for the Gladiators, this attacking batsman single-handedly led his team to register a score past 160.

• Naseem Shah- This Pakistan International pacer has the potential to take wickets early on in the innings for his side to give them the upper hand, under the lights.

Top Picks – Lahore Qalandars

• Babar Azam- Being arguably one of the greatest batsmen of modern-day cricket, the Pakistani skipper has been the leading run scorer for this franchise in the 2023 edition.

• Tom Kohler Cadmore- He showed his true attacking intent in a 90-run inning in the inaugural game for Zalmi. With the game being played at the National Stadium of Karachi, Tom will be expected to once again to deliver with the bat, at the top of the order.

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – Shaheen Afridi, Fakhar Zaman

Vice-captain – Mohammad Nawaz, Martin Guptill

Wicketkeeper – Sarfaraz Ahmed

QUE vs LAH 10th Match Probable Winners:

This is a match whose outcome will be decided by its batters than the bowlers. This is just why we predict the Qalandars to win Match 10 at the expense of Gladiators. Moreover, the likes of Jason Roy and Martin Guptill are yet to find their consistency, which has been a huge problem for the Gladiators so far in the competition. On the other hand, both Fakhar Zaman and Mirza Tahir Baig have shown how dependable their team could be when they come out to bat. Considering the team combination, Lahore Qalandars is expected to win this match.

Two games in two days can often be a good thing or bad thing. If Quetta win their first game, the momentum carried forward will help going into the second game as they take on a struggling Lahore unit.

QUE vs LAH Key Players

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.

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.

QUE vs LAH Match Tips

Despite Lahore finding their start a little tough, their bowling unit with Haris Rauf and Shaheen Shah Afridi slowly getting up to rhythm will put them in as favorites.
