Islamabad United v Peshawar Zalmi – Team News

• Usman Khawaja – The Australian batsman has been an excellent late addition to the United squad for the PSL 2021. His form at the top of the order has pushed them one step short of the final.
• Hussain Talat – The local star remains key to the Islamabad middle order, especially if the men above him have failed.
• Faheem Ashraf – The all-rounder is back for United after missing a few matches due to injury. His role with bat and ball is vital.
• Shoaib Malik – The former Pakistan captain’s contribution with the bat was important to Zalmi’s playoffs victory over the Karachi Kings.
• Wahab Riaz – The veteran left-arm seamer snared two big wickets in the win over Peshawar. He’ll want at least two more here.

Islamabad United v Peshawar Zalmi – Betting Tips and Prediction

We have more helpful cricket betting tips. They include attractive odds and are based on our experience of the tournament so far.

Bet on Zazai as Zalmi’s Top Batsman

Hazratullah Zazai was fantastic in Peshawar’s playoff win over the Karachi Kings. He took the attack to the opposition bowlers and knocked the defending champions out of the tournament.

He has only played three matches in the PSL 2021, but already scored two half-centuries. He’s a big asset at the top of the order.

Parimatch were among the first to price up the top batsman markets for this match and have Zazai offered at 3.35. We really like the look of this bet.

Choose Khan as United’s Top Bowler

We backed Shadab Khan to be Islamabad’s top bowler against the Multan Sultans and he duly obliged with two key wickets.

United didn’t win that match, so Khan and company have to try again. The spinner will be important on a pitch that’ll probably be a bit slow.

Bet on Khan to be the top bowler for Islamabad again. He might only need to more wickets for this to happen. It’s a good price at 4.25 with Betway.

Select Ali as the Player of the Match

It’s possible a bowler will win the player of the match award in this fixture. Hasan Ali has taken 12 wickets in nine fixtures for United this season.

He was briefly sidelined due to personal reasons, but is back in the XI and performing decently. He is exactly the type of character with big match temperament to really step up in this playoff.

Ali will probably need at least two wickets to be named player of the match at 14.0 with LeoVegas. These are long odds but worth a go. Don’t forget, he can shine with the bat as well.
