In match 10 of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2021, Islamabad United will take on Peshawar Zalmi at the National Stadium in Karachi on Saturday.
Islamabad United are on a roll in the PSL this season, winning both their games so far. With Alex Hales and the middle order firing on all cylinders, Islamabad United could be the team to beat in this edition of the PSL. With Hasan Ali also in the mix, the odds are good in favour of a win for Islamabad United in this game.
Peshawar Zalmi, meanwhile, have had an inconsistent PSL campaign. Their bowling attack hasn't gelled as a unit, which has led to teams posting mammoth totals against them. They will need captain Wahab Riaz and Mujeeb ur Rehman to fire if they wish to go deep in the tournament.
Peshawar Zalmi are the hot favourites for this PSL game despite their indifferent recent form. However, Islamabad United's superior depth could come to the fore. Nevertheless, an entertaining game of PSL cricket beckons at the Karachi National Stadium.

Pitch Report
Despite this game being the second of the day, the batsmen should feel comfortable out in the middle.
There could be some lateral movement on offer for the bowlers, though. Wickets in hand will be key, as the pitch could slow down in the latter half of both innings.
Nevertheless, a total of 160-170 runs could be a competitive one, with chasing being the preferred option for teams after winning the toss.
