Sunday game is important for both teams eyeing playoff spots and city pride. Lahore Qalandars, currently in the top two of the standings, have been dominant this season. Powered by explosive opener Fakhar Zaman and the elegant Abdullah Shafique, their batting has been rock solid. The bowling unit, led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, has been lethal, with all-rounders Daryl Mitchell and Sikandar Raza providing balance in pressure moments.
