PSL 2020 Match 26 – KAR vs LAH Fantasy Preview

As we move into the deeper stages of the 2020 Pakistan Super League, the matches are getting tighter and more exciting for one and all. After the last game of PSL 2020 was abandoned due to rain, we have Match 26 set to take place at Karachi where the home team Karachi Kings will be in action. With 3 wins in 7 games so far, this year hasn’t been the best for them at all.

On the other hand is Lahore Qalandars who started off the season badly but have now bad a late surge in PSL 2020, winning three consecutive games and keeping their hopes alive this tournament, with a total of 4 wins in 8 games this season, in the middle of the points table.

Karachi Kings

Given his extremely high standards and consistency, Babar Azam has only managed 2 fifties in 7 games in PSL 2020 with a total tally of 225 runs, but he’ll be waiting to get back to scoring more runs. Along with him, it’s been a good season for Alex Hales who has a lowest score of 29 in 6 games and 2 fifties, currently the team’s leading run scorer and both these high-quality batsmen should be in your KAR vs LA fantasy team.

The rest of the batting has struggled and that’s why I’ll pick more Karachi bowlers like Imad Wasim who leads the side and has had a poor season with only 95 runs and 4 wickets in 7 games, but can be a game-changer on his day. Along with him, the T20 specialist from England Chris Jordan could be a wicket-taking option for your fantasy team, currently their second highest wicket-taker with 7 wickets in 7 games so far.

Lahore Qalandars

With the bat, Ben Dunk joined the team late but he’s overtaken everyone to become the team’s leading run scorer with 257 runs in 6 games including 2 fifties, though he had a short stay at the crease in the last game. Along with him, one can choose the very explosive Chris Lynn in their fantasy team because he finally broke the shackles in the last game, scoring 59 and bringing up his first fifty of PSL 2020 in his 6th game.

All-rounders are key and that’s why Samit Patel should be in your Howzat (sign-up with code “READ1234”) fantasy team, maybe even as captain or vice-captain with 9 wickets in 7 games to go with 100+ runs this season. Another all-rounder pick could be David Wiese who hasn’t really batted much this season but he hit a few lofty blows to take them over the line in the last game, and has 5 scalps in 6 games so far.
