Form Guide

Hyderabad Kingsmen are yet to register a win in the ongoing tournament after suffering back-to-back defeats against Lahore Qalandars, Quetta Gladiators and Multan Sultans and will be looking to dethrone Peshawar Zalmi to ease the pressure.

Meanwhile, Peshawar Zalmi will look to continue the same momentum and will keep an eye on registering their second win after their first victory, following a washed-out game against Islamabad United.
