Peshawar Zalmi and Karachi Kings meet in Eliminator 1 on Monday in the 2021 Pakistan Super League. The winner of this game will play the winner of the Qualifier between Islamabad United and Multan Sultans in Eliminator 2 on Tuesday. Peshawar Zalmi finished in 3rd, Karachi Kings finished 4th. This match will get underway at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium at 22:00 local time.
Peshawar Zalmi put in an impressive display in defeat to Islamabad United and a similar showing with the bat would be enough to beat most other teams. Wahab Riaz is an excellent bowler leading the attack alongside Mohammad Irfan.
Any team with Babar Azam at the top of the order will have a chance of winning. Martin Guptill made only 5 on Saturday but hit 43 on Thursday and his presence in the side will threaten Peshawar Zalmi’s bowlers.

Peshawar Zalmi Team News & Playing 11
PZ Team News
Peshawar Zalmi come into this match with inconsistent form but will rate their chances against Karachi Kings who finished below them in the group stage. Expect the experienced players in the Zalmi squad to come to the fore as the knockout stage begins.
PZ Key Players
Kamran Akmal- the Pakistan wicket-keeper batsman has two half-centuries since the tournament switched to Abu Dhabi. He has experience behind the stumps and is a more than reliable batsman.
Sherfane Rutherford- the young Caribbean batsman has one score of 50+ in the tournament but averages 34.42. He is a consistent run-scorer in the middle order of this side.
Wahab Riaz- another experienced campaigner, the Peshawar Zalmi captain has 14 wickets in the tournament. He has gone wicketless in only three matches in the 2021 PSL
PZ Team Form
Peshawar Zalmi have threatened to go on winning and losing runs throughout their time in Abu Dhabi but as yet have not managed to put a streak together.
Kamran Akmal (9.5) and Chadwick Walton (8.5) will be our wicket-keepers. Both are tidy wicket-keepers with good batting abilities.
Batsmen
Babar Azam (11), Martin Guptill (9.5), Sharjeel Khan (9.5) and Sherfane Rutherford (9) are our batsmen. Babar Azam has three half-centuries in the Abu Dhabi leg of the tournament.
All-rounders
Umaid Asif (9) will be our all-rounder. He has made useful contributions with the bat and taken wickets, this could be the game where he brings them together.
Bowlers
Wahab Riaz (9), Mohammad Irfan (8.5), Noor Ahmad (8.5) and Mohammad Ilyas (8) will be our bowlers. This is a great mix of Wahab’s experience and Ahmad’s youth.
Captain/Vice-captain
Babar Azam will be captain, Noor Ahmad his deputy

Karachi Kings Team News & Playing 11
KK Team News
Karachi Kings snuck into the play-off stage with two straight victories after three successive defeats. They rely heavily on Babar Azam and in Noor Ahmad have a potential world star over the coming decade. We expect them to be unchanged from their win over Quetta Gladiators in this game.
KK Key Players
Babar Azam- the Pakistan opener went beyond 500 runs for the tournament in Saturday’s win over Quetta Gladiators. His wicket is the prize which all opposing bowlers want.
Mohammad Ilyas- the 22 year old Pakistan bowler has 7 wickets in the tournament and crucially is trusted by his captain to bowl the important death overs.
Noor Ahmad- only 16 years old but the Afghanistan bowler already has experience in the BBL as well as the PSL. He has taken crucial wickets in this tournament.
KK Team Form
Karachi Kings’ PSL 2021 tournament looked over before wins over Quetta Gladiators and Lahore Qalandars got them into 4th spot. Successive wins are valuable in any format of any tournament..
Karachi Kings Predicted Playing 11
Babar Azam, Sharjeel Khan, Martin Guptill, Chadwick Walton (wk), Imad Wasim (c), Danish Aziz, Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Ilyas, Noor Ahmad, Mohammad Amir, Arshad Iqbal

Who will win Peshawar Zalmi vs Karachi Kings ?
Kamran Akmal and Babar Azam have been the top batsmen for their sides during the competition and are backed to top score.
Peshawar Zalmi vs Karachi Kings Top Team Batsmen
We are backing Kamran Akmal, Hazratullah Zazai and Shoaib Malik with the bat for Peshawar Zalmi. Akmal is more than capable of producing a match winning innings.
For Karachi Kings we are backing Babar Azam, Martin Guptill and Sharjeel Khan. The top three in the Karachi Kings order could all take the game away from the opposition.
We are backing Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Irfan and Sameen Gul with the ball for Peshawar Zalmi. Wahab Riaz continues to produce year in year out in the PSL.
For Karachi Kings we have gone with Arshad Iqbal, Mohammad Amir and Noor Ahmad. The Afghan spinner Ahmad has burst onto the scene in recent games.
Both teams finished level on points with Multan Sultans in 2nd place but clearly come into the play-offs without the form and momentum of the top two. We are predicting a game which could go either way but backing Karachi Kings to come out on top.
