Peshawar Zalmi, captained by Babar Azam, meet Lahore Qalandars in the 19th match of PSL 2026 at the National Stadium in Karachi on Saturday, 11 April. The match begins in the afternoon at 2:30 pm local time.
Zalmi remain unbeaten, sitting second in the table with three wins and one abandoned game. Their latest outing was a commanding 159-run win over Karachi Kings. Lahore, led by Shaheen Afridi, have had a mixed campaign, winning two and losing two of their four matches to sit fifth. They beat Hyderabad Kingsmen and Multan Sultans, and lost to Karachi Kings and Islamabad United.
Peshawar’s likely line-up pairs Babar with Mohammad Haris and Kusal Mendis, and relies on Sufiyan Muqeem and Nahid Rana among the bowlers. Lahore can turn to Abdullah Shafique, Sikandar Raza and Asif Ali with the bat, while Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf and Mustafizur Rahman lead a pace-heavy attack. Karachi in the afternoon is usually good for batting, so partnerships in the middle overs may decide the result.
