KAR vs LAH Today PSL Match Prediction :
Karachi Kings will face off Lahore Qalandars in the final of Pakistan Super League 2020 in Karachi tomorrow night. Both the sides did well in the league stage and then Karachi Kings beat Multan Sultans in Qualifier. On the other side, Lahore Qalandars beat Peshawar Zalmi in Eliminator one and Multan Sultans in Eliminator two and now both will fight against each other to clinch their first ever PSL trophy.
Here we are going to discuss strengths and weakness of Karachi Kings as well as of Lahore Qalandars and will also make our KAR vs LAH Today Match Prediction –
Strengths :
Karachi Kings’ main strength is their batting pair of Babar Azam and Alex Hales as these two batsmen score big runs with consistency and they also have Sharjeel Khan, Cameron Delport, Ifthikhar Ahmad who can play good knocks and captain Imad Wasim and Shurfane Rutherford have the capabilities to hit big shots down the order. In the bowling Mohammad Amir is their trump card and he is getting good support from Waqas Maqsood, Arshad Iqbal and captain Imad Wasim.
On the other hand, Lahore Qalandars’ strength is their batting line up of Fakhar Zaman, Tamim Iqbal, Mohammad Hafeez, Samit Patel who have played good knocks so far and have the capabilities to play big knocks and then all rounder David Wiese is doing good job as a finisher like we have seen in the last two matches. In bowling they have express pacers Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf who have been good so far and they are getting good support from Dilbar Hussain and David Wiese.
Weaknesses :
Karachi Kings’s weakness is the poor form of Sharjeel Khan, Chadwick Walton and Ifthikhar Ahmad as these batsmen are struggling for runs and their poor form might break the momentum of other batsmen and then in bowling Wayne Parnell conceded a lot of runs in the last match and his form will also be a cause of concern for them.
On the other hand, Lahore Qalandars’ weakness is the inconsistency of their openers Fakhar Zaman and Tamim Iqbal as they get the start but aren’t converting them into big knocks and also their bowlers except Shaheen Shah Afridi leaks runs so they need to work on these issues.
Here we are going to discuss both Karachi Kings and Lahore Qalandars’s playing combination and probable playing XIs who will be useful for making KAR vs LAH Dream11 Team
Karachi Kings won their last match despite a poor outing from Wayne Parnell but due to lack of overseas options they might continue with the same playing 11. On the other hand, Lahore Qalandars won back to back matches with the same playing 11 and they have no reason to change it.

KAR vs LAH Today PSL Match Prediction :
Here we are going to discuss about a few players from both sides who can be very good picks for KAR vs LAH Dream 11 Prediction teams
Mohammad Hafeez : He has been in great form in recent times as he smashed back to back fifties against England two months ago and then did well in domestic tournament last month and in the last match against Peshawar Zalmi he played a winning knock of 74* runs so he has the form and runs with him.
David Wiese : He is a pretty decent bowling all rounder. In the Eliminator one against Peshawar he picked 2 wickets and scored 16* off 7 balls and then in Eliminator two against Multan Sultans he picked up 3 wickets and also scored quick 48* runs under pressure.
Shaheen Shah Afridi : The best bowler in Pakistan at present. He is the leading wicket taker of this tournament and in the last match against Peshwar Zalmi and Multan Sultans he picked up 2 wickets each and didn’t give much runs either so he is a must pick at present.
Babar Azam : The run machine of Pakistan continued his good form and scored 65 runs against Multan Sultans in Qualifier and he has scored 50 plus runs in each of his last three innings so he is also a must pick.
