Karachi Kings vs Peshawar Zalmi match prediction 15th match

Karachi Kings will play against Peshawar Zalmi in match no. 15 of the ongoing Pakistan Super League at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, this Monday evening.

With both the teams winning their previous matches, the two middle-placed teams in the league will play for similar priorities in the upcoming match – to climb up the ladder. With veteran Kamran Akmal on one side and Babar Azam on the other, Pakistani fans would be on cloud nine come the coin-toss. We too might have something to cheer about – winning money within a span of a few hours. Does that sound good?

All you gotta do is read through my analysis, place the bets strategically and wait for the handsome returns (which is inevitable):

At least 25 runs expected from Alex Hales

Trying to make his fortunes in domestic leagues after a disappointing exit from the International arena, Alex Hales has been doing his business with panache in the last few months. His scores in the three matches played this season – 52, 29, 29, having scored 110 runs at an average of 36.67 runs per innings and has scored 24 or more in each of those matches. So far, there’s no reason why we should not invest in this deal. But, what really hooked me to this market is the recent form, which he has been maintaining since the Big Bash League.

Having played 17 matches in the Australian domestic tourney, the explosive batsman racked up 576 runs at an average of 38.40 runs per innings which includes six fifties. Moreover, in his last six innings in the Big Bash League (which concluded just 17 days before he played in PSL) were – 8, 59, 60, 47, 63, 85, having amassed a total of 322 runs at a rate of 53.6 runs per innings and passed the 24-run mark on five instances. I hope you have got enough reasons to place this guaranteed bet.

Kamran Akmal to hit a few boundaries

Kamran Akmal batting in a T20 match at home is one of the most nightmarish scenes for a bowler taking the run-up on the other side. He has built the reputation of being one of finest stroke players in the history of the PSL and I am in no mood to back him up for hitting just three fours in the match. In the past four matches, Akmal has hit a total of 23 fours at a rate of almost six per innings, having hit at least three in three of those matches. Having played the last two matches at the same venue, in Rawalpindi, the right hander would be aware of the conditions.

In the last three H2H matches against Karachi Kings, the right-hander had struck a total of 15 boundaries (5 per match), which also supports our cause. In the last edition of the PSL, Akmal managed to send the ball to the ropes a total of 39 times in 13 matches, hitting three per innings on average. Having hit 667 fours in 250 T20s overall, he still manages to maintain an average of over 2.5 strikes per innings. I can only see cash on the other side of this bet, do not miss the opportunity.

Karachi Kings to hit quite a few sixes

Karachi Kings have had a mixed start to the season and lacked firepower to see them through in two of the four matches they played. What they do not lack is abundant big hitters in their squad and Bet 365 is just too generous to offer returns almost double the investment for them to hit just seven sixes in the next match. In the four matches they have played so far, the Kings have hit a total of 32 sixes at an average of eight per match and hit more than seven in three of those matches.

To gauge the variety of hitters they have, let me inform you that Kings have nine different six hitters in their squad, with Alex Hales, Cameron Delport, Imad Wasim and Sharjeel Khan having already hit at least five sixes each in the last four matches. In the last H2H match against Peshawar Zalmi, the Kings hit a total of nine sixes and in the last match at this venue, they cleared the ropes a total of 12 times. Overlooking this bet will be a waste of opportunity to win some easy cash, so invest in this market as soon as possible.
