PES vs QUE Match Details

Rawalpindi Stadium Pitch Report

The Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi has one of the best surfaces for bowlers. In T20 cricket, both pacers and spinners have usually dominated the batters over the years. In the upcoming season, it might not change, as the pitch might stay true to its nature. Batters could have a difficult time in the middle.

As it will be a day game, chasing totals might be difficult. Hence, toss might play a part, as dew is unexpected to make a difference in the match. For batters, the key would be to make the most of the Powerplay overs and rotate strike in the middle overs. Bowlers need to operate good line and length to trouble the batters.

Quetta Gladiators’ Finn Allen could be the best batter of the match. The star opener has a lot of experience playing in Pakistan. He will be hungry to score runs and might blast the bowlers all around the park. The right-handed batter is highly aggressive and might attack the bowlers right from the word go. His early unleashing could be the difference between the two sides.

Probable Best Bowler: Abrar Ahmed

Abrar Ahmed has been in great form in the last few months. The Quetta Gladiators spinner bowled well in the Champions Trophy and will hope to continue his form in the PSL 2025.
