They have got immense talent in their batting line-up and just need one good match to get themselves going.

Quetta Gladiators on the other hand, too lost their first game of the tournament in a thrilling finish over Peshawar Zalmi by 5 wickets in the final over of the match. Will Smeed who played his first PSL game shined with the bat despite the losing cause. Bowlers should back their batters in the upcoming games.
