The league stage of the ongoing edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) will end on February 21 with a game between Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi.

Both teams have sealed their place in the playoffs but will be fighting for a place in the top two and in this aspect, the Peshawar side will have to register a huge win to trump the Qalandars thanks to their inferior net run-rate.

Lahore Qalandars are sitting pretty in second position in the points table with six wins from nine games. They come into this game with a stunning 66-run win over Islamabad United and will be looking to go into Qualifier 1 high on confidence.

Shaheen Afridi, the skipper, has led the team from the front as most of their players are in good form. It is just about continuing their good work for the Qalandars.

Peshawar Zalmi, on the other hand, are on a three-match winning streak that has helped them almost seal third place in the table. They have been defending totals well of late but have a task on their hands to get past the in-form Qalandars in this encounter.

Moreover, Peshawar had also lost to the Qalandars earlier in the tournament by 29 runs.
