Lahore Qalandars vs Multan Sultans, PSLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Lahore Qalandars vs Multan Sultans𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 26, Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 20:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore Cantt, Pakistan 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Pakistan Super League, 2025 Can LHQ settle scores with Multan Sultans? Lahore Qalandars vs Multan Sultans TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. LHQ vs MS Match Prediction & Analysis Lahore Qalandars will take on Multan Sultans at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. The hosts have lost their last match on this ground. Both teams have an inconsistent batting lineup. Multan Sultans haven’t been as impressive in their other outings as in their win over LHQ in Multan. Expect a close encounter between the two teams. Both sides have plenty of batting firepower with big-hitting players at key positions in the lineup. For Multan Sultans, Yasir Khan and Muhammad Rizwan hold the key at the top, while Sam Billings and Daryl Mitchell are crucial for Lahore Qalandars in the middle order. Qalandars faced a top-order collapse in the last match, while Sultans failed to finish the game on a high after a good start. It is a good batting wicket, and both teams will be eager to find their batting rhythm and get back to winning ways. TEAMS PREVIEW Lahore Qalandars Preview Lahore Qalandars will be out to avoid a hat-trick of losses. Though they’ve got a deep and power-packed batting order, LHQ have struggled to deliver consistently. The middle-order delivered a hugely disappointing performance against Multan Sultans while chasing a 200+ target, and in the next game, the home team lost half of their side for 34 runs in the powerplay. The current state of affairs at LHQ is quite grim. The last time LHQ won a match was against Karachi Kings while batting first in Karachi. Fakhar Zaman scored 76 at the top while Daryl Mitchell was out for 75 off 41 balls at number 4 to lead the team to 201 runs. Even with Sam Billings and Sikandar Raza coming to the party in the next match, Lahore have failed to deliver a consolidated batting effort that would put up a competitive total or chase one down. The lack of runs from Asif Ali and Abdullah Shafique in the top 3 is a huge concern for the hosts going ahead. In the bowling attack, skipper Shaheen Shah Afridi is a key wicket-taker to watch out for. Multan Sultans Preview Can Yasir Khan repeat his last performance against the Qalandars? He delivered a match-winning knock for the Sultans in their last encounter against LHQ. Skipper and his opening partner, Muhammad Rizwan, was also quite impressive in that game, scoring at a strike rate of 188. Rizwan’s strike rate dropped drastically in the next outing. However, Usman Khan at number 3 has been very consistent with his scoring rate. Khan will be a key batsman to watch out for in this match. The top 3 are quite strong and we expect them to lead Sultans with a solid start in the first half of the innings. There is a long list of all-rounders who follow the number 3 batsman. The likes of Ashton Turner, Michael Bracewell, and Iftikhar Ahmed come in at 4, 5, and 6. Chris Jordan replaced Turner in the last game but Bracewell was sent up to number 4. It didn’t make much of a difference. Sultans also have David Willey in the squad. There are many bowling all-rounders in this squad, and the batting looks quite limited, and the top 3 batters have the majority of the scoring responsibility. The lack of consistency from the middle and lower middle-order batters can hold the Sultans back from scoring big in this game. Weather Conditions It will be a clear day in Lahore with a high of 38 degrees Celsius. There would be no clouds when the match begins and no signs of rain. LHQ vs MS Pitch Report It is a good batting wicket, and the average 1st innings score in the last 4 T20s is 176 runs. We reckon anything over 185 runs will be a competitive target and put the batting team in pole position on this wicket. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first have won 3 of the last 4 T20 matches played at this venue. Though LHQ lost their last game here while batting first, we still believe it’s a good venue to bat first and win.
United States Of America Women vs Zimbabwe Women, ZIM-W vs USA-W 2025, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : United States Of America Women vs Zimbabwe Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 25, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 21:15 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Grand Prairie Stadium, Grand Prairie, United States 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st T20 2025 USA Women’s team comes into this match with five straight T20I victories under their belt. Meanwhile, Zimbabwe Women have suffered defeats in their last five T20 internationals. United States Of America Women vs Zimbabwe Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. USA-W vs ZIM-W Match Prediction & Analysis USA Women welcome Zimbabwe Women to Dallas for a thrilling white-ball contest starting Friday at Grand Prairie Stadium. The hosts come into the T20I series with perfect momentum, claiming victories in all five recent T20Is. Zimbabwe’s fortunes tell a different story, with five consecutive T20I defeats weighing them down. Looking at current performance trends combined with home advantage, USA Women enter as favorites for this showdown. TEAMS PREVIEW United States Of America Women Preview USA Women come into the series riding a five-match winning streak in T20Is, including their title win at the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Americas Region Qualifier 2024/25. Their T20I squad has a solid mix of veterans and fresh faces. With Anika Kolan ruled out due to injury, Pooja Ganesh steps in as the new wicketkeeper. Mitali Patwardhan has also been added to the squad and is set to make her senior debut. At the top, Disha Dhingra and Chetna Pagydyala are expected to handle the scoring duties. They led the run charts for the team during the Americas Region Qualifier and will be central again. The middle order is in good hands with Aditiba Chudasama and Isani Vaghela, both known for their steady presence. Chetnaa Prasad and Ritu Singh take charge with the ball. They picked up 17 wickets combined during the Americas Region Qualifier and know how to work these conditions. Aditiba Chudasama is another option—they’ll count on her all-round ability, especially after she topped USA’s wicket tally in that series. Zimbabwe Women Preview Zimbabwe Women come into this series on the back foot. They managed just one win out of six in the recent Namibia Women’s T20I Tri-Series and need to shift gears fast if they want to compete with a confident USA side on home turf. Their batting needs to come through. Chipo Mugeri-Tiripano, Beloved Biza, and Modester Mupachikwa all crossed the 100-run mark in that Namibia series. Tiripano led the way with 146 runs across six games at a strike rate of 118. The middle order will depend on Runyararo Pasipanodya and Chiedza Dhururu to keep things moving—whether that’s rebuilding after early losses or pushing the scoring rate. With the ball, Zimbabwe will be looking to Biza and Kelis Ndhlovu to deliver. Ndhlovu’s left-arm spin could be especially effective on these slower pitches. Josephine Nkomo is another to watch—she’s picked up 11 wickets in her last nine outings and could be a game-changer again. Weather Conditions Grand Prairie Stadium presents a two-paced surface with noticeable grip for spinners in the morning hours. The outfield runs slower than usual due to overnight dew. Expect the ball to hold on the pitch during the first innings. Boundary dimensions favor the northern side at 62 meters, while the square boundaries stretch to 70 meters. Dallas has seen a lot of rain over the last couple of days, and the forecast says there’s an 80% chance of rain and thunderstorms on the match day. This means we might not get a full game. USA-W vs ZIM-W Pitch Report The average score batting first at Grand Prairie Stadium is 153 in men’s T20Is. For this game, both teams will look to target a score of around 130 runs while batting first. Toss: To Bowl This will be the first women’s T20I game played at Grand Prairie Stadium. In the seven men’s games played at the venue, five have been won by the chasing side. This record suggests that both captains might prefer fielding first here.
Delhi Capitals vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Delhi Capitals vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 27, Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 07:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Arun Jaitley Stadium, Central Delhi, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Delhi Capitals’ aim to better record against the RCB Mumbai Indians vs Lucknow Super Giants TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. DC vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis We are in that stage of the Indian Premier League 2025, where some of the teams have taken a clear lead. In this context, we expect a cracker of a contest where the Delhi Capitals will take on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the 46th game to prove their dominance. The Royal Challengers defeated the Rajasthan Royals in the last game and look confident. Delhi Capitals have also done well and won against the Lucknow Super Giants in their last game. Both teams will aim for the top spot on the points table with a win. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have shown consistency in recent matches. They have won three out of the last four games. They have enjoyed a good record against the Delhi Capitals, and the team will look to bank on its batting strength. The Delhi Capitals won’t hand the game on a platter to the RCB, but they have done well themselves. We expect a close encounter as the teams fight hard to make it to the top of the points table. TEAMS PREVIEW Delhi Capitals Preview Axar Patel will be proud of his team’s performance this season. They defeated the Lucknow Super Giants by 8 wickets in the last game to move to the second spot on the points table. They have their batsmen in good form, and the bowlers have also done well. They defeated the Royal Challengers Bengaluru earlier in the season, and the team will look to draw inspiration from that win and do the same. Abishek Porel batted well in the last game, and he looks forward to delivering a good start in this game with Karun Nair. KL Rahul and Axar Patel set up a match-winning partnership in the last game and are looking to build partnerships with Tristan Stubbs. Ashutosh Sharma, Vipraj Nigam, and Mitchell Starc can hit the ball hard and add firepower to this batting lineup. Mitchell Starc and Axar Patel bowled brilliantly in the last game, and they will have to do well as the Royal Challengers are in good form. Mukesh Kumar will be confident after his 4-wicket spell in the last game and shall look to do well in the middle overs with Dushmantha Chameera. The team will expect a good show in the supporting role from Kuldeep Yadav and Vipraj Nigam. oyal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Rajat Patidar’s team has been the talk of the world this season. They have shed their tag of being slow starters and have done well since the season’s start. The side defeated the Rajasthan Royals in the last game by 11 runs. They have enjoyed a good record against the Delhi Capitals, and Patidar would like his team to build on the momentum and take a step towards the playoffs. Virat Kohli is among the best batsmen this season and played a match-winning knock against RR. He’ll look to deliver a strong start with Phillip Salt. Devdutt Padikkal is batting well, and he will look to add runs in the middle order with Tim David and Rajat Patidar. Jitesh Sharma, Romario Shepherd, and Krunal Panya are powerful hitters and complete a strong batting unit. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal leaked runs in the last game, and the team needs a better show from them with the new ball. Josh Hazlewood picked 4 wickets in the last game and tilted the odds. He will look to do the same with Shepherd in the middle overs. Krunal Pandya and Suyash Sharma add variety to this attack, making it strong. Weather Conditions There will be clear skies over Delhi. We expect the conditions to be hot. The track would be a good one to bat on, where batsmen can play their strokes easily. The average first innings score is 169 runs, and the side batting first would like more than 190 runs on the board to feel confident. DC vs RCB Pitch Report Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, is one of the best venues for T20 cricket in India, and we have seen high-scoring games here in the past. Fast bowlers must bring out their variations to do well here, and the spinners enjoy good support from the wicket. Batsmen can play here without fear as the ball comes onto the bat nicely. Toss: To Bowl The side chasing the score in this venue won most games in the last two seasons. We have seen big scores, and the excellent wicket makes it a good surface to chase. The side that wins the toss in this game would opt to bowl first and try and dismiss the opponent for a small total.
Mumbai Indians vs Lucknow Super Giants, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Mumbai Indians vs Lucknow Super Giants 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 27, Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 03:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai City, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Lucknow Super Giants have beaten Mumbai Indians in each of their last three IPL clashes. Mumbai Indians vs Lucknow Super Giants TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MI vs LSG Match Prediction & Analysis Match 45 of IPL 2025 sees Mumbai Indians (MI) go up against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at Wankhede on Sunday afternoon. MI have finally broken into the top four after stringing together four wins in a row. The five-time champs are hitting their stride at just the right time. LSG, on the other hand, are still unpredictable—they’ve slipped to sixth with five wins and four losses. The surface should be good for batting, and with the kind of power hitters both teams bring, we could be in for a high-scoring clash. Given their current form and home advantage, MI will have a slight upper hand. TEAMS PREVIEW Mumbai Indians Preview After stumbling early in the season, Mumbai Indians have found their groove—four wins in a row have pushed them up to fourth on the table, with 10 points from nine games. Their most recent win came in Hyderabad, where they made light work of a modest 144-run chase against SRH, wrapping it up in 15.4 overs with seven wickets to spare. They’re starting to look like a complete unit. The top order— Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks, and Rohit Sharma—have had their ups and downs but are putting enough on the board to give the innings a decent platform. Rohit’s back in rhythm too, with back-to-back 70s that helped seal the last two games. Given his IPL track record, that’s a big boost heading into the final stretch. The middle order is where they’re doing real damage. Suryakumar Yadav has been on fire—373 runs in nine games, averaging 62.16 with a strike rate of 166.51. He’s looked in full control recently, scoring 68* off 37 and 40* off just 19. It’s hard to see him slowing down as he returns to his home ground. Tilak Varma’s timing and intent have been spot on as well. He’s another one who can shift momentum quickly. Further down, Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir are both capable of turning a game in a handful of deliveries. Pandya’s also pulling his weight with the ball, picking up 12 wickets and keeping things relatively tight with an economy of 9.08. Deepak Chahar’s got eight wickets but hasn’t been as tidy at the end of innings. Trent Boult has kept things in check with the new ball and at the death. He was the standout against SRH, finishing with 4-26. Jasprit Bumrah’s presence has added another layer of control. Between the two of them, they’ve managed to keep a lid on things. Mitchell Santner has done a tidy job through the middle overs and should get some turn on this pitch. Lucknow Super Giants Preview It’s been a bit of a stop-start campaign for Lucknow Super Giants this IPL—five wins, four defeats, and a sixth-place spot with a poor NRR of -0.054. They’ve pulled off some solid results but haven’t managed to build momentum. To stay in the playoff race, they’ll need to string together a few wins quickly. One thing going their way lately is Aiden Markram’s uptick with the bat. The opener has looked more settled as the season’s gone on, scoring 326 runs in nine innings at a strike rate of 151—third-best in the side. Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran have been the mainstays in the batting department. Marsh has hit 344 in eight games at 160.74, including four half-centuries. Pooran has been even better—377 runs in nine outings, striking at an outrageous 204.89. He failed in the last two games, so we expect him to make a big impact in this match, particularly on a great batting wicket like Wankhede. Outside of these three overseas stars, the batting hasn’t clicked. Rishabh Pant’s tough run continues—just 106 in eight innings—and the middle order lacks bite. David Miller’s been off as well, struggling to find timing or rhythm. That said, Ayush Badoni and Abdul Samad have chipped in when needed. Badoni’s composed 36 off 21 in the last game steadied the innings, while Samad’s late knocks have added some valuable late runs. Shardul Thakur leads their wicket tally with 12 from nine matches, but his economy of 11.20 has been expensive. Avesh Khan has stepped up late in games and taken eight wickets while going at 9.84. Weather Conditions At Wankhede, the strip usually offers plenty for the batters, though there’s often a brief window at the start where the quicks can extract some movement with the fresh ball. Once that passes, the track flattens out and scoring flows. With an afternoon start, expect the pitch to dry out and give spinners something to work with in the middle overs. The surface should remain solid throughout, meaning slower balls might not be the best option. Conditions will be hot and muggy in Mumbai, but showers aren’t on the radar. MI vs LSG Pitch Report At Wankhede, first-innings scores usually hover around 170. RCB smashed the highest ever here with 235-1 against MI back in 2015. In the last two games, teams batting first put up 176-6 and 162-5, but still lost without much of a fight. That tells you anything under 190 isn’t likely to hold up. Both sides will probably have 200-plus in mind if they want to stay ahead. Toss: To Bat This will be an afternoon game, and in this hot and sultry weather, both teams are likely to bat first.
Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 26, Saturday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Eden Gardens, Kolkata, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 The last time Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings faced off at Eden Gardens was in IPL 2024, where Punjab beat the home side by chasing down 262 in 18.4 overs. Quetta Gladiators vs Karachi Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. KKR vs PBKS Match Prediction & Analysis Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) take on Punjab Kings (PK) in the 44th match of IPL 2025 this Saturday night in Kolkata. KKR have struggled with form this season, picking up only three wins from eight games, putting them at seventh in the standings. Punjab are doing better, with five wins and three losses, holding fifth place. They’ve already taken down KKR once this year and look better placed to do it again. TEAMS PREVIEW Kolkata Knight Riders Preview It’s been a tough ride for defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders so far—just three wins in eight games, five losses, and they’re now sitting at seventh on the table. They’ve now lost back-to-back games for the first time this season, the latest being a heavy 39-run defeat to Gujarat Titans at home. The team looks worn down. The batting unit hasn’t done them any favors. Apart from skipper Ajinkya Rahane, the rest have been patchy. Quinton de Kock was replaced by Rahmanullah Gurbaz last match, but the Afghan keeper could only chip in with 1 on his season debut. Sunil Narine’s form at the top has been unpredictable, and both Venkatesh Iyer and Rinku Singh are having a hard time adjusting to the slower tracks. Andre Russell has hit a few out of the park, but overall hasn’t looked anywhere close to his usual self. Ramandeep Singh, given multiple shots, still hasn’t made any real impact. One of the few positives is Angkrish Raghuvanshi. The youngster has scored 197 runs from 7 innings, averaging 38.71 with a strike rate of 149.24. But KKR’s habit of shifting him around the order hasn’t helped with stability. The bowling has fared a bit better. Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora have handled the early spells decently, taking 20 wickets between them. The spin trio of Varun Chakaravarthy, Sunil Narine, and Moeen Ali have managed to apply some control through the middle overs. Russell, despite his quiet run with the bat, might still be useful with his cutters on this pitch. Punjab Kings Preview Punjab Kings are hanging in there—five wins, three losses, and they’re currently fifth. In their last game, they went down by 7 wickets at home to Royal Challengers Bengaluru, a team they had beaten away not long before. At the top, Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh have been aggressive early, but haven’t quite strung it together game after game. Shreyas Iyer has been steady at number three, piling up 263 runs from eight innings with a strike rate of 185.21. He’s looked assured and will be central to their batting again. Nehal Wadhera has chipped in nicely through the middle overs, striking at 146. His knocks haven’t been long, but they’ve come at the right moments. Josh Inglis replaced Glen Maxwell but hasn’t offered much with the bat. Given the Eden surface, Punjab may rethink that swap just for the added spin option Maxwell brings. Marcus Stoinis is hit-and-miss but dangerous when he connects. Shashank Singh has quietly done a good job closing games and can flip the momentum late. Weather Conditions Eden Gardens produced its trademark pitch last game – good for runs but with some natural slowness. Expect more of the same, with the ball gripping the pitch and batters needing to time their shots carefully. Slow bowlers should play a major role, putting extra importance on scoring freely during field restrictions. Kolkata’s weather looks partly cloudy with high humidity in the evening hours. No rain is predicted, meaning we’ll likely see a complete 40 overs of action. Eden Gardens has produced an average first-innings score of 167 runs. During this year’s IPL, four matches have been played here with just one offering a true batting paradise – the remaining three surfaces favored slower conditions while remaining decent for scoring. Should we get another slow track like last game’s, teams will likely target 180-190 to post a competitive total. Toss: To Bat Three of the four matches played at Eden Gardens in IPL 2025 have been won by the team batting first, which clearly shows that batting first is more advantageous here.
Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 25, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 CSK’s tough challenge to fix the Chepauk puzzle Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. CSK vs SRH Match Prediction & Analysis The points table pressure is catching up on teams as we enter the most crucial phase in the Indian Premier League 2025. We will have an interesting contest where Chennai Super Kings take on the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 43rd game. Both teams must win this game to reach the next round. The two teams lost their last games, coincidentally against the Mumbai Indians for both teams. They will look to revive their form with a strong performance in this contest. The Chennai Super Kings have lost the last three games at home. The batting lineup fails to put up runs on the board, and the bowling attack looks ineffective. The side must fight hard in the middle to win this game. The Sunrisers have struggled with the ball, but their batting lineup has shown sparks of brilliance. A lot is at stake for the two teams in this game, and we expect a close contest. TEAMS PREVIEW Chennai Super Kings Preview Things are getting tough for MS Dhoni and his men. The season has turned into a nightmare for the four-time champions. The team suffered its biggest loss of the season in the last game against the Mumbai Indians, going down by 9 wickets. The team is struggling with the bat and the ball. Dhoni has vast experience and will look to lift his side back into form with his leadership skills. The top order has struggled this season. Rachin Ravindra must fire at the top and build partnerships with Shaik Rasheed. SRH bowlers aren’t in great form, giving the openers the perfect opportunity to get things right. Youngster Ayush Mhatre impressed everyone in the last game, and he must add runs in the middle order with Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dube. MS Dhoni must do the heavy lifting in the final overs with Jamie Overton and Vijay Shankar. The bowling attack has looked toothless this season and had their worst in the last game. Khaleel Ahmed and Jamie Overton will look to strike early as the Sunrisers’ batsmen come into this game low on confidence. Ravichandran Ashwin and Jadeja must use their experience and do well in the middle overs. Matheesha Pathirana and Noor Ahmed will look to bowl better lines than what they have done. Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview From being the finalist last season to an extended struggle this year, Pat Cummins and his men have hit a low. The side suffered a 7-wicket loss against the Mumbai Indians in the last game, and they are fighting for their survival in the tournament. The batting lineup is struggling, and the bowling has proved ineffective. Cummins would want his men to pull all socks and win here to keep hopes alive. Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma are struggling, and the team needs a better start at the top to lay a strong foundation. The middle order failed in the last game, and the team expects a strong show from Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, and Heinrich Klaasen. Aniket Verma, Abhinav Manohar, and Pat Cummins must do the heavy lifting in the lower middle order. Jaydev Unadkat and Pat Cummins struggled with the new ball in the last game, and the team expects early strikes from this pair. Zeeshan Ansari and Harshal Patel must check the scoring rate in the middle overs to trouble the CSK batters who have struggled this season with consistency. Eshan Malinga and Abhishek Sharma must deliver the goods in the supporting role. Weather Conditions The skies over Chennai will be clear, and we expect hot and humid conditions. The wicket won’t be easy to bat on, with the ball stopping on the batters occasionally. A score of 180 runs or above will be good, with an average first-inning score of around 150 runs. CSK vs SRH Pitch Report MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, is a good venue as it aids both the bowlers and the batsmen. Batsmen must play to the ball’s merit, as fast bowlers get some early assistance from the surface. The track is slow, and spinners have always enjoyed bowling on this surface. Toss: To Bat Chennai is known for being a difficult surface for run chases. It is the slowest surface in the tournament and tends to slow down as the game progresses. The side that wins the toss would take advantage of the conditions by batting first.
Quetta Gladiators vs Karachi Kings, PSLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Quetta Gladiators vs Karachi Kings𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 25, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 20:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore Cantt, Pakistan 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Pakistan Super League, 2025 Redemption or Repeat? Quetta Gladiators Seek Revenge Against Karachi Kings in Lahore Showdown Quetta Gladiators vs Karachi Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. QTG vs KRK Match Prediction & Analysis The Quetta Gladiators are set to take on the Karachi Kings in Match 15 of the Pakistan Super League 2025 on April 25 at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. Karachi Kings are enjoying a strong run of form, winning three out of their last five games and sitting second on the points table with 6 points. In contrast, Quetta Gladiators have struggled for consistency, managing just one win in three games and finding themselves in fifth place with 2 points and a negative net run rate. In their most recent outing on April 18, 2025, Quetta Gladiators faced a challenging match against Karachi Kings at the National Stadium in Karachi. Opting to bat first, Karachi Kings posted a competitive total of 175/7, with James Vince leading the charge with a fluent 70 off 47 balls. In response, Quetta’s batting lineup struggled against a disciplined Karachi bowling attack. Saud Shakeel and Mohammed Amir provided some resistance. But Queta could only muster 119/9 in their allotted 20 overs, falling short by 56 runs. Hasan Ali was the standout bowler for Karachi, claiming 3 wickets for 27 runs. TEAMS PREVIEW Quetta Gladiators Preview Quetta Gladiators have started their 2025 Pakistan Super League (PSL) campaign with flashes of brilliance and glimpses of areas that need reinforcement. At the top of the order, Saud Shakeel will open the innings with Finn Allen. Shakeel has 93 runs in the first three games, but his strike rate is below 110. Shakkel has 90 runs at a strike rate of 102.5 in the last three games against the Karachi Kings. Allen started his season with 53 runs off 25 balls. Since then, he has been quiet with the bat. Hasan Nawaz will come at number three. Ideally, Allen will be the batter to watch out for. Kusal Mendis will lead the bowling attack with Rilee Rossouw and Khawaja Nafay. Mendis has scored 75 runs in the first three games at a strike rate of 208. Roussow is enjoying his role as a stabilizer in the middle order. In three games, he has 66 runs at a strike rate of 183. But he has a poor track record against the Kings in the last three games. Roussow has 17 runs in 33 deliveries against the Kings in the last three games he has played against them. Karachi Kings Preview The Karachi Kings have experienced a rollercoaster start to their 2025 Pakistan Super League (PSL) campaign, securing three wins out of their first five matches. Under the leadership of David Warner, the team has displayed moments of brilliance, particularly in their batting lineup. David Warner himself has added valuable runs, notably a 60-run innings in a thrilling two-wicket victory over Peshawar Zalmi in their last game. James Vince has emerged as the linchpin of Karachi’s batting, amassing 186 runs in five matches at a striking rate of 172, including a century. His consistent performances have provided the team with solid starts. Tim Seifert will continue to open the innings with Warner. He has 107 runs at a strike rate of 117. Complimenting Vince, Khushdil Shah has been instrumental in the middle order, contributing 140 runs with a highest score of 60. He also has 4 wickets with the ball at an economy of just above 8. Excluding these four, no other batter has impressed any supporter. On the bowling front, Hasan Ali has been a standout performer, claiming 10 wickets in five matches with best figures of 4/28. His efforts have placed him among the top wicket-takers in the tournament. Supporting him, Abbas Afridi has taken 8 wickets, providing crucial breakthroughs and maintaining pressure on opposing teams. Mohammad Nabi has been the most economical bowler among the Kings’ camp with an economy of 5.12 while picking up 3 wickets. Weather Conditions The weather forecast for match day indicates clear skies with temperatures peaking around 36°C during the day and cooling to approximately 22°C in the evening. Humidity levels are expected to be low, around 27%, with gentle southeast winds blowing at 8–15 km/h. These conditions are ideal for cricket, minimizing the chances of rain interruptions and providing a comfortable environment for both players and spectators. The pitch at Gaddafi Stadium is renowned for being batting-friendly, offering good pace and bounce that allows batters to play their shots freely. Recent matches have seen high first-innings scores, with averages around 184 runs in T20 internationals. The outfield is lightning-fast, further aiding stroke play. While pacers might find some assistance early on, especially with the new ball, spinners could come into play as the match progresses and the pitch wears down. The game will be played at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on 25th April from 8:30 pm onwards. With a seating capacity of over 34,000, Gaddafi Stadium is among Pakistan’s largest cricket venues. It serves as the headquarters of the Pakistan Cricket Board and is the home ground for the Lahore Qalandars in the Pakistan Super League (PSL). Toss: To Bowl In 29 T20I games hosted at Gaddafi Stadium, the results have largely favored teams batting second, with chasing sides emerging victorious on 18 occasions. The team winning the toss should bowl first.
Lahore Qalandars vs Peshawar Zalmi, PSLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Lahore Qalandars vs Peshawar Zalmi 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 24, Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 20:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore Cantt, Pakistan 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Pakistan Super League, 2025 Peshawar Zalmi look for consistency Lahore Qalandars vs Peshawar Zalmi TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. LHQ vs PSZ Match Prediction & Analysis Lahore Qalandars will take on Peshawar Zalmi in their first match of the home leg at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. After two back-to-back wins, LHQ were outplayed by Multan Sultans in their last game. The Shaheen Afridi-led Qalandars will be looking for a comeback in this game as they face a struggling Zalmi side. Peshawar’s batting has been quite inconsistent lately and despite a strong middle-order, they’ve failed to post competitive totals on the board. Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Mohammad Haris are the key players for Peshawar Zalmi in the middle order. These two led PSZ to a match-winning score in Rawalpindi and will be crucial in this game too. For the hosts, Fakhar Zaman is the in-form batter at the top who will be expected to deliver a strong start. The batting lineup is quite deep, and the skipper will expect a strong comeback from the team in this outing. TEAMS PREVIEW Lahore Qalandars Preview Lahore Qalandars failed to chase a 229-run target in their last outing in Multan. The 38-year-old left-arm orthodox bowler Asif Afridi was the only economical bowler for LHQ. He picked up 1 for 26 in his 4 Overs while the rest of the bowlers had an economy of over 10 r.p.o. Zaman Khan bowled one over for 22 runs including 2 no-balls. Shaheen Afridi will be concerned with this bowling effort and needs to lead the attack with a quality spell at the start of the innings. A few early wickets from the left-arm pacer can turn things around quickly and put pressure on the over-relied middle-order of Peshawar Zalmi. The experienced Haris Rauf also plays a big role with the ball. All-rounder Sikandar Raza is handy with the ball and has consistently delivered wickets for Lahore Qalandars in recent games. In the batting lineup, Fakhar Zaman leads from the front. In the middle-order, the Qalandars have Daryl Mitchell and Sam Billings, followed by Sikandar Raza at number 7. All of them are experienced batters and have been in good touch recently. Mitchell is known for his ability to play a longer knock, while Raza is a great finisher for LHQ. These 3 will be responsible for delivering a good finish. Peshawar Zalmi Preview Peshawar Zalmi desperately need a win here to stay alive in the competition. They have won just one of their 4 matches so far. The only win for PSZ came against Multan in Rawalpindi while defending a 227-run target. After a huge win in that game, Peshawar Zalmi’s poor batting form continued as they once again finished under 150 runs. Their batting has been hugely disappointing this season, and the number 1 reason for the 3 losses from 4 games. Captain Babar Azam isn’t in his best form. His lack of runs and poor strike rate are a huge concern for PSZ going ahead. His opening partner, Saim Ayyub, who’s another quality batter and can deliver big starts, has scored in single digits in his last 3 innings. A lot depends on the middle order of Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Mohammad Haris in this lineup. These two have been among the consistent run-scorers for PSZ and will be expected to lead the batting effort once again. The batting lineup is deep with Mitchell Owen and Abdul Samad coming in at 6 and 7, respectively. Hussain Talat is another reliable big-hitting batsman at number 5 and will be one to watch out for. Weather Conditions It will be clear and sunny in Lahore with a high of 38 degrees Celsius on the match day. There are no signs of clouds or rain around the match time, and we expect an uninterrupted match between the two teams. LHQ vs PSZ Pitch Report It is a decent wicket with plenty of help for both batters and bowlers. The average 1st innings score in the last 10 T20Is here is 184 runs. Anything over 200 will be a match-winning score on this surface. The highest score successfully chased at the Gaddafi Stadium in PSL is 188 runs, by Lahore against Quetta Gladiators. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first on this ground have won 18 of the 29 T20Is played here. It is not a very high-scoring ground, and we reckon batting first and having runs on the board can be a good choice on this wicket.

They have delivered devastating blows to their opponents and shall look to build on this record. The Multan Sultans have won only once in four games, and the bowling attack looked rusty. They have a poor record against Islamabad United, and it remains to be seen if the team can punch above its weight. TEAMS PREVIEW Multan Sultans Preview Mohammad Rizwan’s team finally has things going for them. After three consecutive losses, the side defeated the Lahore Qalandars in the last game by 33 runs to earn their first points this season. The bowling attack is looking rusty despite the heroics of the batsmen. Rizwan would expect a better show from his bowlers as they take on the defending champions. Yasir Khan played a match-winning knock in the last game and will look to deliver a strong start with skipper Mohammad Rizwan. The middle order has done well, and the team needs a strong show from Usman Khan, Ashton Turner, and Michael Bracewell. Iftikhar Ahmed, Kamran Ghulam, and David Willey shall look to add quick runs in the lower middle order. The bowling attack is the weak link in this team, and the team needs early strikes from David Willey and Michael Bracewell, as Islamabad United has a strong batting lineup. Ubaid Shah and Joshua Little will look to keep the scoring under check in the middle overs. The side will expect good spells in the supporting role from Usama Mir and Iftikhar Ahmed. Islamabad United Preview Shadab Khan’s team looks unstoppable at the moment. The team has won four games in a row and looks in a strong position to be the first team to reach the playoffs.

Ben Dwarshuis bowled an impressive spell in the last game and looks to do well with the new ball alongside Naseem Shah. Jason Holder and Imad Wasim have tons of experience, and they make this bowling attack strong in the middle overs. The team will also like a good show from Mohammad Shahzad, Shadab Khan, and Mohammad Nawaz in the supporting role. Weather Conditions Multan will have clear skies on April 23. We expect to see a great cricket match. The wicket is flat, and batsmen can play their strokes without any fear on this surface. The average first innings score is 168 on this surface and the side batting first will need 200 runs on the board to feel safe. MS vs ISU Pitch Report Multan Cricket Stadium, Multan, is a good surface to bat on as the ball comes easily onto the bat. Stroke players have done well here in the past. Fast bowlers need to mix their line well to achieve rewards on this surface, while spinners have been more successful thanks to the turn and bounce available on this surface. Toss: To Bat Multan is a tough venue to chase scores. In the last six games, the team chasing has won only once at this venue. The wicket is good to bat on in the first innings but slows down in the second half. The side winning the toss will look to bat first.
Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction
𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 23, Wednesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 SRH’s powerplay dominance again rests on Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head’s explosive opening partnership. Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SRH vs MI Match Prediction & Analysis Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) face off against Mumbai Indians (MI) at Uppal on Wednesday night in Match 41 of IPL 2025. MI had a rough start to the season but have now stitched together three wins in a row and climbed to sixth in the table. SRH are still struggling, with just two wins from seven games and no real rhythm to their campaign. Those two wins did come at home, though, and they’ll be hoping familiar conditions work in their favor again. That said, with the way MI have been playing lately, they go into this one looking like the more settled team. TEAMS PREVIEW Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview Sunrisers Hyderabad have had a rough run so far—just two wins from seven games. When they’ve come out on top, it’s been because their batters blew the doors off the opposition. But if the top order falls early, they tend to fold fast and never really recover. That’s what they’ll be hoping to avoid when they host MI. If Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head get going early, like they’ve done in a couple of games, it sets them up nicely for a big total. Heinrich Klaasen, Ishan Kishan, and Nitish Kumar follow, and while all three haven’t fired this season, there’s still confidence that Klaasen’s power game can turn up here. Aniket Verma has been a bright spot. He’s been clearing the ropes in the back end of the innings and doing it with a strike rate of 187. They’ll enjoy the batting conditions in Hyderabad, and MI’s bowlers are going to feel the pressure. Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians have bounced back well after a rough stretch, stacking up three wins in a row to climb to sixth with eight points from eight games. In their latest game, they chased down 177 against CSK at home without breaking a sweat—getting it done in just 15.4 overs with nine wickets in hand. They’ve finally clicked as a unit, with contributions spread across the board. The top order—Rickelton, Jacks, and Rohit—still have their shaky moments, but are putting up enough runs up front. Rohit’s 76* off 45 against CSK was a much-needed return to form, and it sets a good tone going forward. The middle and lower-middle order have been where the real push is coming from. Suryakumar Yadav has been in prime touch—333 runs in eight matches at 55.50 and a strike rate of 162.43. He looked effortless in his last outing, smashing 68* off 30, and will be confident heading into Hyderabad. Expect more of the same. Tilak Varma’s been looking sharp too, with two fifties in his last three knocks. He’s another batter who can tilt the game. Towards the back end, Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir can cause damage if they get enough balls. Both are capable of clearing the ropes in quick time. Weather Conditions The surface at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium is usually flat, but some of the strips used in IPL 2025 have played unevenly. Pitch number two, though, sticks to the usual Uppal script—it’s great for batting. Chances are the home team will go with that one. If they do, expect another high-scoring game. It’s a nightmare for bowlers with no movement or grip to work with. The ball sits up nicely, making it easy for batters to hit through the line. Add in the short boundaries, and we’re looking at a match full of boundaries and big hits. Conditions in Hyderabad will be warm and humid, but there’s no rain in the forecast, so the match should go ahead without interruptions. SRH vs MI Pitch Report If pitch number two is used for this game, expect runs galore as both teams will aim for at least 220+ totals. We’ve seen this surface twice already this season – the first time, Sunrisers Hyderabad hammered 286-6 while batting first and won by 44 runs. The second time around, they chased down 246 with 1.3 overs to spare. The challenge for SRH comes on slower pitches, where their batting unit tends to struggle badly as they’re not built for those types of wickets.
