PES VS KAR MATCH 27

Match number 27 is upon us as just three games are now left in the league stages. What’s more intriguing is the fact that three spots are still wide open as the race for the playoffs has intensified. In this game, it will be the Karachi Kings taking on Peshawar Zalmi in Rawalpindi. It goes without saying that both teams will be itching to win this all-important game. For Karachi Kings, in the batting department, James Vince has been the man in form as he has amassed 294 runs this season and is in contention for the leading run scorer of the season. Tim Seifert and Khushdil Shah have chipped in with some contributions throughout the season. However, David Warner, their captain, hasn’t really got going and what better time than the business end of the tournament to step up. In their bowling department, the pace duo of Abbas Afridi and Hasan Ali have been their pick of the bowlers, having taken 15 and 14 wickets each. For the Peshawar Zalmi their batting has been a bit of a problem as except for Mohammad Haris none of their batters have passed the 200-run mark this season, summing up their batting woes. Their Captain and Pakistan’s ace batter, Babar Azam is yet to fire in full tilt and he would be itching to get going in this crucial encounter. Their bowling has fared well till now, as they have bowled as a unit and even in the last game, their bowling attack bowled out the Multan Sultan batters for a meagre total of 108. Alzarri Joseph has been consistently amongst the wickets for them. So, who will emerge victorious in this important fixture? Will the Karachi Kings go two up on Peshawar Zalmi or will the Zalmis hit back by settling the score 1-1? We shall find out.
