Lahore Qalandars, so far, have had a title-defending campaign to forget, and with just four games remaining in the group stages, that is more likely not to change than it is. In six games, they have lost four and won only two. The defeats also include two Net Run Rate (NRR) slashing losses: a 76-run loss versus Peshawar Zalmi and a nine-wicket defeat against Islamabad United.
They still have a chance to finish among the top four, and the first step is to win all of their remaining games. Starting that against Rawalpindiz, who are yet to win a game this season after six matches, would be the most desirable scenario for Qalandars.
Head-to-Head Matches:
Both teams have yet to play a PSL game against each other.
