Preview for Dream11 Fantasy
It’s been a pretty close start to this 2020 edition of the PSL. All teams have lost at least one game each and there is a little bit of crowding up early in the points table. Both Islamabad United and Karachi Kings have blown hot and cold.
Islamabad United have played five games and have been pretty inconsistent. Their batting has been very good and have delivered in every game. They’ve got 160+ every time they’ve batted be it batting first or chasing. The bowling has been slightly expensive and inconsistent.
On the other hand, Karachi Kings started the tournament really well. They handed Peshawar Zalmi a 10-run loss as they made 201 batting first. The batting has been disappointing since then. Babar Azam is the only one who has got big runs but the team can’t depend on him to do all the scoring. The others will have to step up.
Weather Condition/Report
After a couple of rainy days, the weather in Rawalpindi is expected to clear up for this game. The temperatures will range between 15 and 17 degrees with humidity being over 70%. There are no chances of rain as well.
Pitch Condition/Report
The Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium has seen a couple of high-scoring games already. The batsmen have enjoyed the conditions and have got tall scores. We could be in for another good batting surface and another high-scoring game could be in store.

Top Picks
There’s little doubt that Babar Azam will be among the top picks. He is one of the top T20 batsmen in world cricket and has the ability to get the big scores. He’s been in good form as well. Imad Wasim has shown great control with the ball and is the only other Karachi Kings batsman who has scored a half-century in this PSL. Luke Ronchi is someone who can take the game away from the opposition in no time. He can blast away at the top of the order and give Islamabad United a good start.
